He entered the Baptist Theological College in 1973, graduating in 1977 with Advanced Diploma of Theology form Melbourne College of Divinity.
Ralph’s father died in 1950. Shortly afterward, he was soundly converted. His following teenage years saw him become an intense student of the Bible, also studying Luther, Calvin, and a plethora of Christian books. In 1956, He received the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Later, as he was recovering from a major illness, he underwent a profound spiritual deepening—experiencing God with a vital sense of obedience and faith.
Once ordained into the Baptist church, Ralph served as a pastor in three Baptist churches. In 1988, he was ordained into the AOG and served in the Hawkesbury AOG churches. Since 2000, he has pastored River of Life Church in Richmond NSW Australia—a member of the Association of Independent Churches.
In 1982, Ralph “learned to pray,” entering upon a journey of meditation on the scripture, occupying many hours each day, and writing many journals. The outcome of all these years of preaching and teaching and pastoring is now culminated in “The Christ” series “Mandate for Discipleship”
In 1973, he married Helena MacNamara, recently migrated from the UK. They had two sons, James and Marcus, and two daughters, Olivia and Christina.показать меньше
