The Christian world got a shock yesterday. Well-loved UK Methodist evangelist Rob Frost had passed into glory.
He was in late 50s and had done more in his life than three ordinary people do in theirs. As well as preaching, writing and travelling (he seemed to be everywhere at once) Rob's greatest contribution to Methodism was Easter People. This was a Christian holiday break for Methodist Evangelical Christians.
The last one took place in Blackpool just after Easter. I attended it for a day in what soon turned out to be the tail-end of my work for the Methodist Church.
We will surely miss him. But for him to live was Christ and to die is gain.
Remember his family, especially his Dad, Ronald. How must it feel to see your son follow you into the ministry, take off like a rocket, achieve so much and then pass into the presence of Jesus before you do? God bless him.
