Watching My Son Jump Off a Cliff Was Way Harder Than I Had Imagined! When Jesse turned 18, he did his first big wall BASE jump in the Italian Dolomites. Under canopy by 10 seconds or it's toast. That's the margin between life and death. As his dad, every instinct screamed at me to stop him. To protect him. To say absolutely not. My job as a father is to keep him safe. To use my experience to guide him away from unnecessary risk. But Jesse is his own man. Kind, humble, hard working, original. And I can't stop him jumping off stuff. As we say in our family: "Pull high, don't die." Watching your child do something that dangerous is harder than any mountain I've ever climbed. You can't control it. You can't be there. You just have to trust that you've given them the tools and the values to make good decisions on their own. Sometimes the greatest act of love is letting go. Trusting that they're ready to fly on their own. Even when every instinct is screaming to hold on. What's one moment you've had to let go as a parent or a leader?

Planning is crucial. But planning can also become a form of putting things off. At some point, you have to just jump.

We surprised my mum and sung her happy birthday today in church… she is 83 and she thought we were away. The surprise made her cry. It’s the same small church that my wonderful father is buried in. It’s a beautiful place that has much meaning to me. Love is all around.

‘The Folded Shroud’ The stone is rolled away. The shroud is folded. He is not there… Myriam of Magdala ventures inside the tomb where Yeshua had been laid. She finds only the linen burial shroud, neatly folded, but his body is missing. This is the last of four readings I’ve shared over the past few days. I hope these moments have moved you in some way. And I hope you’ll be inspired by the rest of The Greatest Story Ever Told… because the story doesn’t end here! #EasterSunday #Resurrection #TheGreatestStoryEverTold

Still here...and still grateful. Faith, and surrounding yourself with great people makes all the difference.

This is the first time in history that the story of Yeshua has been Number One in the Sunday Times Bestseller List! Proudest thing I’ve ever done. Because it is a story that affects us all. Our futures. Our hopes and confidences and the way we live and approach both adventure and life. Have you read it yet? What did you feel? #greateststoryevertoldbook #numberone

The best way to overcome fear is right through it. Moving towards the scary and the difficult is where true courage is found.

Tonight across America our series premiere of Refugee Renegade Redeemer with Bear Grylls - 8p ET on TBN. This series has been a really personal journey of exploration, following in the footsteps of Christ through Israel. I took motorbike, ropes, parachutes and adventure gear, and travelled the land, to find out what really happened 2000 years ago. Why did everyday people love this man, yet the religious elite fear him so much? And why is the life and death or a humble builder living under Roman occupation relevant to our own lives today? We finished filming this series one week before the October 7th attack. What we learnt along the way has been life changing…. Only on TBN and the TBN+ app #adventure #faith
