About Phil
Phil Pringle is the Founder and Leader of C3 Church Global, an international movement of over 600 churches, and the Senior Minister of C3 Church in Sydney Australia.
Here, Phil shares his pen, brush and voice, through these books, paintings and blogs.
In 1980, my wife Chris and I, with the kids and some good friends, came to Sydney from New Zealand to start a church! We had 13 people at our first service. The congregation grew rapidly and we moved buildings, bought land and built a school.
We began planting churches around Sydney, then Australia, then various parts of the world; we've now grown to 600+ congregations in our movement.
We’ve started C3 College, a television program, and Oxford Falls Grammar School, all on around 25 acres at Oxford Falls, Sydney.
I’ve always been passionate about the arts playing a major role in church to make her contemporary and relevant to our current world. The C3 College Creative Arts stream has developed and graduated thousands of musicians, worship leaders, song writers, graphic artists, dancers, actors and film makers.
I myself also paint and exhibit in various venues and cities. I love to write, so I’ve mixed these two elements together in books like But God and 24 Hours That Saved The World – The Gospel of John in Art. My other books include You the Leader, Disciple, Moving in the Spirit, Four Prison Prayers of Paul, Leadership Excellence, Hope, Leadership 101 and Do it Now!.
I love the local church. I believe it's the hope for the world.
See you in church!

Our whole society relies on discipline. People going to work each day, doctors following procedures, pilots checking equipment, all rely on each person following a set of rules – a discipline. Following Jesus is synonymous with living disciplined. The current times demand disciples, not just churchgoers or Christians.

‘This is the best leadership book I’ve ever read. There are so many great practical how to books out there, but this book focuses in on who the leader should be and what he/she should be made of! Incredible. Less of a “read” and more of an “impartation!” S. Parrish’
