Planted

On the Farm with Angus Buchan

February 18, 2022 • Angus Buchan

When Uncle Angus arrived here from Zambia on the 9th of August 1977, he was not a Christian. He gave his life to Jesus on the 18th of February 1979. Today is his spiritual birthday! He was "planted" here for a reason.... he met Jesus, and the rest is history. Where have you been planted and how will God use you where you are? Trust Him in the process.

Appreciation

August 9, 2022 • Angus Buchan

Today I want to honour women for everything they do, especially my wife Jill. It is 45 years today that we arrived on this farm on the 9th of August 1977, with nothing more than a caravan. My wife was 6 months pregnant and we had 3 small children. There was nothing here, it was just an overgrown piece of land. There was no water and no electricity, and my wife made this a home... Thank you to all the women for everything you do and everything you are. Jesus bless you.

Quiet Times

Spending time with Jesus is never a waste of time. Let us go to a quiet place and let us talk to Jesus and spend time with Him. I have a poustinia in the form of my prayer room, but I also have a special place in my mind that I go to, especially when I'm travelling. A poustinia is a Russian word for a small sparsely furnished cabin or room where one goes to pray and fast alone in the presence of God.

Starting Out

January 14, 2022 • Angus Buchan

It's amazing how little you really need in order to have a fufilled life, especially when you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour. Uncle Angus tells us stories from the early days when he was just starting out, building his home and preparing the land, all with a young family. If you are thinking you will never be able to get started in life, be encouraged, with Jesus Christ first in your life, anything is possible.
