Speaking Today: Graham McDonald
I was born in Scotland and grew up in East Kilbride, a town to the south of Glasgow, Scot-
land’s largest city. In 1988, I became a Christian after hearing the Gospel preached by the
late Rod Carroll of Oklahoma. Rod used book, chapter and verse in every one of his ser-
mons and it impressed me that this was the way the Gospel was intended: hearing what
the Bible actually said and doing it. The following year I moved to Florida and studied the
Bible there for two years (Florida School of Preaching). After graduation in 1991, I moved
to Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital city, and in 1994 I moved to Cumbernauld where I cur-
rently serve the Lord. Beth and I married in 1995 and we have four children, three of whom
have obeyed the gospel. I have preached throughout Scotland as well as Northern Ireland,
England, The Netherlands, Italy, Malawi and America.
Graham McDonald: Cumbernauld, Scotland
Graham McDonald is a missionary in Cumbernauld, Scotland. He attended the Florida
School of Preaching in Lakeland, Florida (1989-1991). Graham has preached the Gospel
in various places in the U.S. as well as in his native Scotland. He formerly did mission
work at the Sighthill Church of Christ in Edinburgh, Scotland. He is presently doing mission
work in Cumbernauld, a city with a population of over 60,000.

Overcoming Life’s Problems
Part Two
By: Tim Shoemaker
“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the
things which happened unto me have fallen out
rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; 13 So that
my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and
in all other places; 14 And many of the brethren in
the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much
more bold to speak the word without fear” (Phil. 1:12
-14).
Because of his imprisonment Paul was able to
preach the gospel to those he might never have been
able to teach if he were a free man. The Greek word
praitorion can be and often was used of the residence of
the governor of a province or of the Emperor’s palace in
Rome. For example we see this word used in reference
to the trial of Jesus. Mt. 27:27 – “Then the soldiers of
the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and
gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.” John
18:28 – “Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the
hall of judgment: and it was early; and they them-
selves went not into the judgment hall, lest they
should be defiled; but that they might eat the pass-
over.”
It could and was used of people, namely the
Praetorian Guard, and this is what many scholars believe
that Paul was speaking of in this context. Php. 1:13 –
“so that my bonds became manifest in Christ
throughout the whole praetorian guard, and to all the
rest.” (ASV) It is not likely that Paul would have had the
opportunity to preach to this elite group of Roman sol-
diers IF he had not been arrested and carried to Rome.
So the gospel has advanced instead of being hindered.
There were those brethren that had been em-
boldened by Paul’s imprisonment to preach the gospel!
Prior to this time these same people had been fearful to
preach the gospel. Have you ever felt fear at speaking
out for the truth about any matter? Have you been fearful
that you might be hated, ridiculed, or attacked verbally or
physically? Then maybe you were encouraged by some-
one taking a stand for the truth unafraid or ashamed at
how others might react toward them. Brother Jack Exum
told the story of an atheist who ridiculed the belief in a
God who was all powerful, all knowing and all loving. Af-
ter a scorching speech against such a belief he chal-
lenged his audience to stand and defend their belief if
there were any present. At first no one moved or uttered
a word in challenge. Finally two young girls stood up and
began to sin, “stand up, stand up for Jesus ye soldiers of
the cross lift high His royal banner, it must not suffer
loss.” Soon a few others joined them, then others and
others until the entire audience was standing and sing-
ing. Those who had been too timid to say a word were
emboldened to finally take a stand for the truth.
