About

They were the Lighthorse, men whose lives and campaigns in far-off places continue to capture the imagination of modern Australians whenever they are re-told. These men mirrored a society whose values and behaviours have long since gone - a vanished society whose manners, morals and principles underpinthe very foundations of today's Australia. Col Stringer is the son of a professional hunter, born in the rugged desert country of Australia. During his life in the Northern Territory Col was awarded the Mariner Fishing Writer of the Year award (Australia) (1979), won a Swedish Gold Medal for a world record shark capture, and was featured in two outdoor documentary films for Australian and American television. Col also successfully hosted his own outdoor and fishing television program for four years and has written 10 books on fishing, hunting and wildlife. His book, a true story about a giant rogue crocodile, has become a bestseller. His business, 'Fishing and Outdoor World,' was hugely successful, leading to improvements in wildlife safaris and wildlife photography.Col and Jan Stringer pastored in Darwin before being invited to the USA (1979), travelling and speaking. He then pastored a church in California, returning to Australia in 1982. They took over a struggling church that blossomed into the largest church in the state of the Northern Territory. The church, under the Stringer's leadership, hosted such internationally known ministries as Kenneth Copeland, Dr Jerry Savelle, and singer Cliff Richards. Several struggling business people have become multi-millionaires using principles gained from the Stringer's Bible teachings on goals, dreams, overcoming against the odds.
