Des’s journey in life was never easy. Always a risk-taker, the toss of a coin shaped his destiny. Never afraid of hard work, he carved out a life for himself and family in some of Australia’s inhospitable places. The isolation suited him, being a man more comfortable with his own company than most. But life was tough, the work endless and his body worn from injury and exertion.
Des had tried burying childhood pain and rejection and had long been running on empty when he profoundly encountered a loving God who filled the void in his heart and healed his body. His story will amaze with the myriad of miracles, healings and supernatural interventions that followed as his true Father poured out His unending love, acceptance and power.

I loved the book about your parents. Absolutely blew me away. How amazing, oh how I wish we could see more of those kinds of healings. What an incredible life they had – Diane, Sunshine Coast
It is my pleasure to write an endorsement for Miracles in the Aussie Bush. I couldn’t put the book down and read it in one day. The miracles of God and the faith to see those miracles come to pass was exhilarating. I highly recommend this story of faith and hard work to encourage your faith – Pastor George Miller, Victory Church, Gympie QLD.
A story of miracles, faith and love.
This story is a beautiful book that shows the power of prayer. Des is a hardworking Aussie bloke who has not allowed tough times to tear him down. Through his life we see how God has worked to create a path of love and one in which his faith shines through.
Reading this book, I felt that I had stepped into Des’ family, as we read of his experiences, challenges and spiritual life. I particularly enjoyed reading of his work in mining, the miracles as a believer of Christ that he has witnessed and the love that remains strong in his marriage. His poem, prayer and next steps section finishes this book in such a way that encourages readers in their walk with Christ, sharing love and hope.
Thank you for sharing this testament of faith. Your story is impactful, significant and one to be shared. A man who has felt ‘God’s peace in his heart.’ This story is a walk in the bush with a faithful, kind and loving family man, who will show you how he walks with Jesus daily. Congratulations on this powerful story. Thank you for allowing me to read your words.
