Outline of questions and at what time they asked in the video: 00:01 β You pastored one church for 50 years in Wales, what was the most difficult aspect of the ministry for you? 03:19 β If you could do it all over again, what would be the things that you would change or do differently? 06:17 β In your own personal walk with Christ, what can you look back on and say you wish you had done differently? 08:48 β How can a pastor deal with discouragement when he has to keep preaching through times of difficulty? 13:02 β If you go back in time to the first day of your ministry, and speak to a young Geoff Thomas, what would you tell him and most stress to him? 15:33 β At the prayer meeting on Wednesday night, you mentioned that there were some areas in your life that you felt like were really critical to not let slip.
