Driving the cab

Subject: Nik Yianni is a London Black Cab driver.
Age range: 40-50 years. He is married to Lola and they live in Guildford.
Interests: motor sport; formerly had a licence to drive Go-Karts.

RL: Nik, please tell us how and when you became a Christian.
Nik:
Lola and I were living in France and our nephew, who was working for St Helen’s Bishopsgate, used to visit us and would bring us some Christian books, which were thrown in a corner! I wasn’t really interested.

One night Lola couldn’t sleep and read one of these and checked what it said with the Bible. This spoke to her. I thought that I should read the Bible and started with Matthew’s Gospel. I had never read this before and was ‘blown away’. I realised that the Lord Jesus Christ was God. This was about five and a half years ago and, following our conversion, we moved back to the UK.
