A life submitted to Christ
Chip was brought up in a non-Christian home, the son of an alcoholic father. Chip’s spiritual journey began with a profound realisation of what God truly desired from His people. Reflecting on his own conversion experience, he recalled encountering Romans 12:1, which emphasises surrendering oneself as a living sacrifice to God’s will. Chip shared, “I realised that God wants us to surrender our lives completely to His plans. In ministry, this often led to unexpected paths, relocations, and life-altering decisions as a family.”
“Memorising scripture has been the most powerful thing I’ve ever done in my life.”
