Is engaging with New Age Spirituality being put in the too-hard basket too quickly? Are we missing a missional opportunity to share the gospel with New Age seekers? This DVD contains a seminar by Ross Clifford, principal of Morling Baptist College in Sydney, filmed at Carey in March 2004. (DVD contains four approx. 1 hour sessions and workbook).
Ross Clifford is a former lawyer who practised in Kings Cross and the Northern Territory of Australia. He is now an ordained minister and has pastored a number of Sydney churches, the last being Gymea Baptist. He is presently the Principal of Morling College (The Baptist Theological College [Seminary] of New South Wales).
Ross is the author of the easy to read book Leading Lawyers Case for the Resurrection. The book is also in Russian and a result of this was that the Deputy Minister of Justice for Russia handed the book to 1,000 Russian Judges and Lawyers. Ross has been to Russia where he addressed University students, lawyers and church members. There is now Canadian and Arabic publishers/editions. He is also the author of the popular booklet The Resurrection ….. you be the judge: Fact or Fiction?
Over the last fifteen years Ross has done many seminars on the New Age Movement and Postmodern spirituality in most States of Australia. He helps run a Christian stall at the annual Mind.Body.Spirit Festival at Darling Harbour. He has advised the secular media on this subject. His publications on the New Age/Postmodernity include (with co-author Philip Johnson): Sacred Quest, Riding the Rollercoaster : How the Risen Christ Empowers Life, Jesus and the Gods of the New Age; and Beyond Prediction : The Tarot and your Spirituality (with co-authors John Drane and Philip Johnson).
Ross has postgraduate qualifications from The University of Sydney, Simon Greenleaf (now Trinity Law School), and a Doctor of Theology from the Australian College of Theology. He has been Chairperson of SLM, the group which places Chaplains in professional/amateur sport throughout Australia. He is currently Sunday night presenter on Radio Station 2CH. He recently served as President of the New South Wales Council of Churches (Evangelical Churches).
Ross has written, with co-author Ric Chapman, The Gods of Sport.
