1. How did you become a Christian?
I grew up on the edge of London a, ‘son of the Manse’ and my first words were, ‘God’ and ‘Jesus’. The gospel was one of the first things I learned and I saw its reality lived out in family and Church life. But it wasn’t until I left home for College in Cardiff and listened to familiar preaching that I knew conviction of sin and my need of Christ for the first time. This led to an 11-month struggle until in despair and in a little corner of Truro, Christ came to me while I read Philippians 1:20,21.
