From the C.J. Mahaney/Sovereign Grace Ministries blog:
While I’m sure the word has spread, some of the most exciting news in Sovereign Grace Ministries is that we are now in Australia! That’s right. A new church has just been planted and we couldn’t be more excited about it. Our friend Dave Taylor and his family have relocated from Christchurch in Newport, Wales, to the land down under. Public meetings for Sovereign Grace Church Sydney began this past Sunday.
We’re so grateful for the Taylors and their ambition to see the gospel preached even when it calls them half way around the world away from family and friends. I recently had the chance to ask Dave some questions about his venture. Here you’re going to find a story that is shaped by the grace and wisdom of God, as well as filled with the faith of two people, Dave and Emma, who love God greatly. I bet God stirs your heart—like mine—as you read. And don’t miss the part about the importance of community. Read the rest of the post here.

Interesting. I wonder why they chose Sydney of all the cities in Australia? It’s hardly the Australian capital city most bereft of broadly-reformed-and-bible-focused churches…
As it happens C J Mahaney is someone I’m not familiar with at all.
Well, anywhere else in Australia and you’d just be camping out…
SGM carry a calvinist ‘charismatics with seatbelts’ tag.
Apparently there is an existing group in Sydney who extended an invitation to Taylor to come and plant an SGM style church with them.
Which is a pretty good way to proceed.
Thanks for the extra info, Gary – yes well charismatic calvinists is a bit of a gap in the market, even in Sydney!
