The Invitation

This book is a collection of words strung together from the Creator.

Poured into my heart from the Spirit that lives within, during morning, dusk or a mundane task.

Written on paper, as a form of praise to the One who holds every day.

From Him flow streams of living water that are needed to satisfy and sustain us for this life under the sun and for every season that comes.

He is the One who holds life abundant, the One who fills and pours out so that we may do the same.

Within each of these words is an invitation, An invitation to accept the sacrifice that He made, An invitation to partake, An invitation to draw close and drink deeply, An invitation to praise, An invitation to journey the ebbs and flows of life hand in hand with Him, An invitation to daily surrender and to live for the glory of another, An invitation to live as an ambassador for something far greater!

I pray these words bring hope, truth and refreshment.

I pray you may sit within them, pray through them, and above all: Let them point you to the person of Jesus, the only one who will ever satisfy the thirst of our souls.

It’s Complicated

 

Why Faith-Inspired Cause Driven Organisations are so complex and what to do about it

Untangling the Maze: Mastering complexity in Faith-Inspired organisations

Faith-Inspired Cause-Driven Organisations (FICDOs) make a profound yet often unnoticed impact. They employ hundreds of thousands and serve millions daily, shaping communities and changing lives.

But all is not well. These organisations may seem straightforward, but their complexity runs deep. Too often, this leads to dysfunction—making work frustrating, draining, and unsustainable. And when an organisation struggles internally, its mission suffers.

How do we create better FICDOs?

The first step is understanding what makes them complex. Next, we must recognise that traditional corporate best practices often don’t work in FICDO contexts. Instead of forcing ill-fitting models, we need fresh approaches—ones that embrace their unique challenges and empower them to thrive in their mission.

Spoken Words

Words have power

Spoken Words is an insightful exploration into the profound impact that the words we speak have on our spiritual and psychological well-being.

This book delves into the significance, consequences, and transformative potential of our spoken words, offering a deep understanding of how they shape our lives and the lives of those around us.

Beginning with the foundational concept of creation through words, as illustrated in the Bible when God said, “Let there be light,” the book establishes the inherent power of speech. This divine act of creation highlights how words can establish order and fulfill divine purposes. The book extends this concept to our daily lives, emphasizing that our words possess the power to shape our realities, influence our emotions, and leave lasting impressions.

About the Author

 

RHEMA GORUCK, A PROPHETIC EVANGELIST writer, and spiritual guide with a deep commitment to exploring the transformative power of the Word. Born in a Hindu background, in Mauritius, a developing country in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), Rhema began hearing the voice of the Lord at a very young age. She understood this divine presence as a close friend who guided her in prayer, particularly in interceding for others. She came to know the Lord personally at the age of 32, deepening her spiritual journey as she studied the Bible under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. In 2009, following a divine calling inspired by Genesis 12, Rhema moved to Melbourne, Australia. There, she pursued a Bachelor of Arts in Ministry at Harvest Bible College and furthered her studies at Bethel School of Faith and Spiritual Ministry, where she cultivated her prophetic and spiritual gifts.

Her faith journey continued at Upper Room Church in Lara Vic, where she participated in prophetic workshops that deepened her understanding and practice ministry. In 2022, Rhema was commissioned and ordained as a prophetic evangelist by
the Lord God in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

Rhema writes in the prophetic as the Lord guides her, with each word divinely inspired and directed by God. In “Spoken Word” she explores the power of words in shaping lives, offering readers a guide to harnessing this power in their daily lives. Whether addressing the significance of naming, the dynamics of blessing and cursing, or the role of worship as a lifestyle, her approach is accessible and deeply insightful.

Rhema resides in Melbourne, Australia, where she continues to write, teach, counsel and minister to those seeking deeper spiritual understanding and personal transformation.

About The Author

BERNIE O’LEARY HAS had an amazing and awe-inspiring journey, over the last 10 years, running Alpha in Western Australian Prisons.

The Lord specifically led him into this ministry, after a 42 year career as a Civil and Water Engineer, with nothing to do with Prisons in his life! Bernie is the Alpha Prisons Ambassador – Western Australia, with Alpha Australia.

He has seen about 540 prisoners doing Alpha in WA, so far (at 2024), and seen many prisoners coming to the Lord, and being transformed.

This book has also shown the results of some overseas initiatives, in major focuses on spiritual transformation and rehabilitation, rather than only a custodial focus.

These have shown huge reductions in number of prisoners, and recidivism rates.

He has said that this whole journey continues to be an incredible adventure, with huge eternal impacts!
