nukelearfishing – the random and occasionally humorous musings of a Baptist Minister who is trying to be a free sample of Jesus and discover God in the ordinary.

  • Selling cars

    Yesterday I had a novel experience. I took Sally’s car back to the garage where we bought it so it could be taken for an MOT test. When I arrived the garage owner asked me if I could do him a favour. I said I would if I could.  He asked me if I would…

They were putting together an edition about children, young people and families and asked me to write something a little bit provocative. So I did. That magazine has now been circulated around Baptist Churches and you can download a…

  • Christian magic?

    I am a Christian. And I am a magician. To some Christians those two statements are incompatible.
