One day I realized I’d made a mistake. It didn’t need to be quiet for me to have a ‘quiet time’. That is, it didn’t need to be quiet for me to have time with God.

Mark Thompson welcomes new SMBC Principal
We at Moore College join with the Sydney Missionary & Bible College (SMBC) community in thanking God for the appointment of Mr Derek Brotherson as Principal of the college to succeed Rev Stuart Coulton. Our colleges have enjoyed a close relationship over many years and our common commitment to preparing men and women for effective cross-cultural mission is more important than ever.

We are looking forward to the ways in which Derek’s experience in Southeast Asia will enrich SMBC and the wider Christian community in Sydney, including us here at Moore. We want to assure the entire SMBC community, and in particular Derek and his wife Anna, of our prayers and partnership in the years ahead.
