Mark began his active ministry in 1990 as a Christian missionary to Indonesia. In 1995, he returned to Melbourne to serve at Hope Christian Church, which is affiliated with the Australian Christian Churches (ACC). He served with Hope church as a full-time pastor, helping to raise elders and other pastors, from 2002 to 2023, and became the Pastor of Evangelism and Missions in 2017. Since 2015, he has led annual mission teams to remote First Nation communities across Australia.

During his full time tenure Mark slowly transitioned from an internally focused pastoral and church-planting role to being led by God into the marketplace, and to raise marketplace disciples. This shift allows him to share lived-out truths and bring God’s kingdom into the arts, education, and business sectors.

Currently, Mark serves as an itinerant pastor-preacher, the founder and director of Iconic Colours, and the Senior Advisor to Jaramer Legal, Australia’s first national Indigenous law firm, in partnership with a reputed global law firm. His home church is LIFE Church in West Melbourne.

Mark’s passion is to raise disciples who know their Christ-identity and destiny, empowered by God’s Spirit to find and release their unique kingdom calling.

His ministry is characterized by God’s anointing to be highly creative, bring spiritual awakening through the gifts of the Holy Spirit, a deep devotion to God’s word and kingdom living, and a distinct calling to bless Australia's First Nation people.

Ordinary church members become elated as Mark helps stoke their fire to dream of God’s master plan for their lives. They will feel sent to the good works God has preordained for them, becoming role models and nation builders.
