Recently, I woke up in the middle of the night with a single word from the New Testament more or less “flashing in lights” in my mind. It was the word DISCIPLE. I realised immediately that “disciple” was not a word I have used very much, in my thinking, or my conversation, or my writing – and yet it is a word that was quite often on the lips of Jesus.

WELCOME – AND SOME INFORMATION FOR NEWCOMERS TO THIS WEBSITE
My name is Stan Firth (pictured below with
my wife, Mavis) and I have set up this web-
site to encourage Christians who, like ourselves,
and thousands of others, are committed
followers of the Lord Jesus, but are serving
Him outside the “Organised Church”. 
I should explain that I don’t put something here with any particular regularity (e.g. weekly, or monthly). I only write when I feel strongly that I have been given something important to say. As a result, this website is simply a LIBRARY, or STOREHOUSE, of articles/blogs/sermons (or whatever you like to call them) written to strengthen and stimulate “outside the camp” Christians.
Some people have been put off by the lack of a regular contribution from me. However, I offer the facility of letting individuals know, by e-mail, whenever something new appears. If you want to take advantage of this, go to the CONTACT THE AUTHOR page, and let me put you on the list.
You can also use the CONTACT THE AUTHOR page, to comment on, or ask questions about, any of the articles - or about anything else that seems relevant to our alternative Christian lifestyle. If what you say seems to need a response, I will certainly e-mail you back. In some cases, what you submit may lead to an article of encouragement or challenge, or to an answer on the FAQ page.

More Information About the Book:
Encouragement, from the Scriptures, for committed and enthusiastic Christians who are no longer connected to the "Organised Church" - with some answers for those who might feel critical of them. (The issue is: What are Christ's COMMANDS, and what are merely Christian CUSTOMS?)
