    'I came from a traditional Buddhist family. When I came to Australia to study in high school in 1971, I was an atheist. One person tried to share with methe gospel of Jesus Christ. I had so many questions for him, but he couldn't answer them. ... [I came to know the Lord] through the ministry of OCF, especially through Lim Kim Bew and his wife, Judy, who are ex-OCFers. They have been very good in reaching out to overseas students, opening theirhome and showing us the love. Many of us came to know the Lord Jesus Christ, not only because of the Gospel, but also the love of this couple, plus missionaries who have returned from China, because of their commitment to the ministry of OCF. The missionaries couldn't go back to China, but their heart for the Lord to reach out to the Chinese was still with them. There were many Chinese in OCF, so they stayed in OCF and ministered to many of us.'- Chris Chua, OCF Australiachairperson 1976, 1977, co-chair with Koo Tuk Su in 1981In 2019, the 60th Overseas Christian Fellowship (Australia) convention sparked an initiative to investigate and preserve the history of the organisation. This came out of a realisation that founding members were now in their eighties. Unless urgent action was taken, some of the history would be lostforever. In the last four years, a heritage team has been interviewing people who've been involved from the 1950s until the present. Come with us on a journey to hear their stories, follow the highs and lows, and see how God calls forth long-lasting fruit out of the fleeting years of our student days.

    Michael Robinson is the winner of the 2009 Gwen Harwood Poetry Prize and the 2023 Tom Collins Poetry Prize and was shortlisted for the Tom Collins Poetry Prize in 2007."An x-ray poet, looking beneath and beyond appearance to the reality...Powerful and disturbing...Yet atonement is here as well...This is clarion call poetry, with all its evocative and gritty language." - Ian Keast, Studio."Combines serious social concern with keen perception of both the beauty and the ugliness of the physical world, all presented in a masterfully controlled formal context." - Sarah Day and Tim Thorne, Gwen Harwood Poetry Prize. "A well-crafted, tactile poem, that gallops with 'the tides of conflict ebb and roar'; 'And every local skirmish has its long / Significance in legends of the deep'; it speaks of 'The ruthless sunlight'; ... 'the river's ripples with fragile fire.' - Pain is felt throughout this poem until it reaches a surprising, poignant end." - Rose Van Son, Tom Collins Poetry Prize."Spoke for generations...finely built, full of pathos." - Peter Bibby, Tom Collins Poetry Prize. The Wounds of Faith is Michael Robinson's third collection of poetry. His previous books are The Tiger in the Vineyard (2015) and The Music of the Streets (2017). A special issue of Studio journal devoted to his work, The Quiet Fire, was published in 2023.

    Terracotta Travellers is the eighth Stories of Life anthology, brimful of ordinary people's brushes with the divine. Sometimes God reveals glimpses of his backstage machinations in the course of our daily grind. This is a collection of forty-one such instances.

These disparate writers from all walks of life embody some of our unique journeys, whether geographically, caught in one of life's stages, or simply learning to ride a bike. Sometimes we are on set trajectories, other times we have no clue where we may be headed, yet at any moment, our God of love may meet us. You'll surely be refreshed, encouraged, or inspired by the true-life tales you find here.

    The struggle with mental health. Living the Christian faith. The two should not be divorced but at the same time they do not live together comfortably.Silence details the story of the author's journey through Post Traumatic Stress Disorder stemming from a critical incident in a school, through dark nights of questioning and out the other side. Combining the walk of faith, with his experiences as a drama teacher and love of music, literature, movies, running the beach and dogs, this is an honest grappling account of how the author reconciled what is often seen as the defeat of PTSD with the expected victory of the Christian faith.Teacher, Andrew Pearce, shares his spiritual journey through PTSD after rescuing a student who attempted suicide, his painful struggles, the challenges he faced, and the healing he found that helped him to move forward through the years that followed.Through Silence, Pearce offers us such a generous and intimate reflection of a day that would change everything- and the long, dark journey through the trauma that it created. It is a devastating yet life-affirming account.- Charlie Lowell, Jars of ClayWith varied experiences in education, psychology, counselling, drama teaching with kids on the autism spectrum and theatre directing, Andrew lives on idyllic Hindmarsh Island, South Australia with his wife Sally and one of his sons, Josh. Vocationally, he spends his time these days working as a disability counsellor. He still runs his beach when his battered feet allow and also enjoys writing, songwriting, veggie gardening and wrestling with acoustic guitar and piano. He is yet to find a dog to rival Maggie but makes it a point of introducing himself to every dog that crosses his path and listening to their story.

    The following poetry book written by Tom Cintula is a series of free verse poems and spoken word works that have been written to express the wonder and curiosity envisioned internally in which no one else can see more clearly than he. He discusses personal demons and existential dread that he has gone through over the course of his life in his dwelling on the downtrodden and dreariness. He also explores its reasoning and upside in the adversity shared in this effort. There is an uncertainty of light in this dive into the darkness, but rest assured that the will to look for closure and further knowledge of these pieces are certain.

    An anthology of true life stories of the faith and religious experiences of regular people.This year's collection of stories of life, The Labyrinth, contains a great variety of subject matter. However, one recurring thread in this year's stories is that of disaster experiences, from boating wrecks, car accidents, plane crashes, to natural events like tornadoes and bushfires. Some are set within hospital wards and Intensive Care Units. Many of the stories this year are transformation stories, that is, accounts of lives that have been radically altered by a caring intervention of others, recognised as the hand of God at work. The writers of this year's stories of life are to be commended for their willingness to share about the place of God in their lives and their deep gratitude for divine support in times of crisis.

    The Swimmer is the fifth installment of the Stories of Life series. In it, people from around the world share their extraordinary stories of faith and life. Some tales are humorous, others are entertaining and upbeat. But not all are happy stories. Many writers describe how they were found by a loving God in the midst of doubts and great suffering, and the circumstances don't always get easier. But the message still comes through loud and clear that God is faithful, near and active in the lives of ordinary people. A poignant tale about a swimmer, which points to the extraordinary beauty and vitality of the human spirit, is this year's title story. In all of these stories we discover that there is something extraordinary to be seen when God works in the lives of ordinary people.

    Fourth in the Stories of Life series, Papa’s Shoes is a collection of true stories of faith, written by ordinary people who encounter God somehow, somewhere. Some of these stories are set, as you might expect, in hospital wards and graveyards, on mountaintops and in churches. But others take place along city roads, rural roads, manicured gardens, weed-infested ones, home kitchens and fast-food chains. It suggests that there is nowhere beyond God’s almighty presence. Taken together, these stories turn our gaze to the vast immensity of a God who is near us and who cares deeply for his creation. In these stories, God answers existential questions, provides practical solutions, and reminds a family of his love with something as commonplace as a pair of papa’s shoes.
