He moved on to pastor several churches including the Millmead Centre in Guildford which became a model for many UK church leaders. In 1979, the Lord led him into an international ministry. His current itinerant ministry is predominantly to church leaders. Over the years, he has written a large number of books, booklets, and daily reading notes. His extensive and very accessible overviews of the books of the Bible have been published and recorded in ‘Unlocking the Bible’. Millions of copies of his teachings have been distributed in more than 120 countries, providing a solid biblical foundation.

Part 92 of the David Pawson 'Unlocking the Bible' Podcast series
David Pawson says the little neglected letter of Jude is wonderful. He reads his own paraphrase and shows that it divides into 2: a dangerous corruption and how to deal with it. David says that Jude (a brother of Jesus) is like a surgeon ‘wielding a knife to cut out the cancer in the Body of Christ.’ All churches are in danger, either from outside – which pushes Christians together and strengthens them; or from inside – being either legalistic or too liberal which can destroy the Body of Christ. Legalism says: you are not free to sin and we’re going to see that you don’t. License says: you are free to sin and it’s okay now you’re a Christian. True liberty says: in the Spirit, you are free not to sin. David says that we are constantly hearing a sentimental view of God being preached on TV and it’s not a true picture of God. Their other problem was regarding Jesus as only one way to God rather than the way. David says when your creed is corrupted, your conduct will be too; when your conduct is corrupted, your character and conversation will be too. He hopes the little letter of Jude will encourage you to contend for the Gospel in truth and love.
