God is certainly not impressed by big numbers. Just ask Gideon, who defeated a vast Midianite army with only three hundred men. The fundamental lesson of the experience of Gideon for believers today is this: When it comes to communities of faith, God is only concerned about faithfulness and eff ectiveness.

This is is why Jesus said, "Go into all the world and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19), and not, "Go into all the world, making big buildings and megachurches." "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them" (Matthew 18:20, KJV). Believe it!
Autorenporträt
Foreword Dr Philip Fleming By Dr Philip Fleming MA. BA, Bch. FRCPsych. DPM "Converted on LSD Trip" was the first title of this book and now republished for a wider audience. This book, the personal testament of David Clarke, in an autobiographical style. It charts his life, which became one of criminality and drug taking though an experience in 1970 of finding God whilst under the influence of LSD. Cynics may say that this was just an effect of drugs, but it is clear that the experience changed his life. Later when in court facing charges he admitted to many other crimes and was fortunate in receiving three years conditional discharge and not a prison sentence. Since then, David has combined his work as a lecturer in electronics with his mission of spreading the word of God. This is a scrupulously honest book, recording both the difficulties he has faced as well as the successes in his life since 1970. A continuing worry is the fat of his brother, currently serving a long prison sentence in a Philippine jail, who himself has recently found God. "This is an inspiring story of a life that has been turned from crime to a positive account and may be of help to others who find themselves directionless and involved in crime and drug misuse". Dr. Philip M. Fleming. MA. BA, Bch. FRCPsych. DPM. Consultant Psychiatrist with special responsibility for drug and alcohol misuse
