		<description><![CDATA[Paul Benger from Christian Life Church in Chesterfield decides to tackle the big question of how to really do this thing called ministry. Taking inspiration from the likes of AXIOM, Paul brings his own take on those things that he&#8217;s discovered make a difference over 25 years of ministry. Was really privileged to speak today to some Pastors on the subject of how to survive the ministry. I was unsure how to approach the subject but decided to base the &#8230; <a href="http://www.greatbritishchurches.co.uk/2012/04/04/how-to-survive-the-ministry/" >&#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a couple of months we are holding our annual Leadership Summit. Will it just be another chance for leaders to get together and be inspired and get all excited again for another new season, another new sense of vision and God-inspired purpose. Or could it be something more? About eight years ago, around February / March, I remember sitting in an office in Sheffield with my Senior Pastor, Dave Gilpin, discussing a recent trip I&#8217;d made to a conference &#8230; <a href="http://www.greatbritishchurches.co.uk/2012/04/04/need-a-game-change/" >&#8594;</a>]]></description>

We&#8217;ve had an amazing few months since launching GBC at The Leadership Summit in May with already a dozen churches signed up to become FRIENDS OF GBC and more still in the process of doing so. Our Preaching and Faith&#38;Finance Masterclasses have been &#8230; <a href="http://www.greatbritishchurches.co.uk/2011/12/14/kickstart-your-new-year/" >&#8594;</a>]]></description>

Such an anointing seemed to be flowing. And that new girl&#8230; her voice! Wow! I think I just heard an Angel sing!! What an exciting start to a Sunday morning church. Then one of the young leaders gets up and casually chats with the crowd. A few notices are given out about some of the inspiring &#8230; <a href="http://www.greatbritishchurches.co.uk/2011/09/15/sharpening-the-gif/" >&#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We all have challenging seasons as leaders and churches. For me, I&#8217;ve just been through a particularly challenging season and even a bit of a storm. We know it&#8217;s a storm when the winds of adversity and persecution begin to blow and the pressure increases! Here&#8217;s a few things I&#8217;ve learned and still learning from Challenging Seasons: 1. When the pressure is on &#8211; go to God When Jesus entered the garden of Gethsemane (Gethsemane = &#8216;olive press&#8217; in greek) &#8230; <a href="http://www.greatbritishchurches.co.uk/2011/09/08/dealing-with-challenge/" >&#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hope you like the new look website! Our aim is to create a space in which pastors and leaders can share ideas, stories and gain some much needed insight and wisdom from other leaders around the nation and beyond. As a pastor myself one of the things I&#8217;ve come to realise is that you can only grow so far on your own personal gifting and character. It might sound really &#8216;holy&#8217; to say that you only ever read the Bible &#8230; <a href="http://www.greatbritishchurches.co.uk/2011/08/11/power-of-together/" >&#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You can tell a lot about the future of a team and the future of the game by THE BENCH – it’s the number one indicator as to whether a team’s going all the way or whether it’s going to falter mid-game, mid-season. THE BENCH MEN Not every great player is on the field of play – some are on the bench, resting, recuperating, recovering and retraining for the season ahead. Some are new arrivals – rookies booting up, awaiting &#8230; <a href="http://www.greatbritishchurches.co.uk/2011/05/16/the-bench-video/" >&#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whenever someone claims that what they’re currently experiencing is a ‘move of God’ I wonder what was happening to them before God moved! Throughout the past ten years, there have been many places across the world that have been branded with the term ‘a move of God’. If that’s the case, what does that say about what’s happening in my neck of the woods! Does it mean that what I have is less than what they have?
