I grew up a believer from age 7 and had a very profound early experience of Christianity. 

I led worship in my church youth group, but in many ways lived a double-life (of carnality outside the church setting). 

Due to repeated episodes of clinical depression & anxiety since age 11, I struggled more and more to cope in life. The episodes would get worse and darker, and eventually result in job losses and emotional bankruptcy. 

 I reached the bottom in 2012. Suicide hovered over me, but my theology couldn’t reconcile it. I reluctantly and under duress took part time work and joined a job club. This eventually led to me getting a job at Apple. ​

I also re-joined the worship team and felt connected, even though mentally I was still oppressed. Eventually, the pull of God’s presence brought me to a place of encounter in 2018, and I really experienced Jesus for myself. It was a night/day moment for me.

I was raised in a Christian home, which provided a good foundation on Biblical truths, yet whilst in university I realised I didn’t actually know God personally or have a relationship with Him.

I came to a crossroads moment where I realised I needed to fully choose God or go my own way. The crunch came when I knew I had to say goodbye to a girl I recently met, before it became a full-blown relationship, knowing it was all or nothing. So I ended that relationship and turned from everything else that was pulling me away from God. After that, I visited a church retreat and I fully yielded to Him in a holy moment of worship, where I totally surrendered - gave up trying to run my own life. I encountered the love of God like never before - not just a feeling, but it took hold of everything, I became a new person at that moment. It felt like liquid love raising my dead self into a new person, full of love, peace and joy. Everything changed in that moment.

24 years later I experienced the pain of divorce which shook me deeply - I repented and fully yielded to him again. I journeyed into sonship, where father God picked me up and put me back together piece by piece. I benefited by being mentored by Dom, where he articulated what God was doing in and through me, also to stand in my home for my kids. I now enjoy walking with this band of brothers in the light, to gather, bond deeply, confess sin, take of masks and step into the proclamation and lifestyle of the gospel. Fathers Arise!

I grew up in a non-Christian home, though I had a brief time attending Sunday School and my Granny was a Christian. I wasn’t interested in Christianity growing up and my only experience of church was an occasional wedding.

After university, two close friends of mine became Christians and encouraged me to do an Alpha course. I wasn’t interested, until a later friend (now my wife) invited me to a course in 2004 and I went along. I knew that God existed, but had no real understanding of who Jesus was or what he had done for me. Within a matter of weeks things started to make sense and I knew God was knocking on my door. I wanted to follow him. I was baptised and within a year was married (something I had never aspired to!) God’s plan for my life began to unfold.

I spent ten years involved in men’s ministry in two churches and was a Street Pastor for three years. However, I feared telling people about Jesus outside of church.

This all changed in 2022 when I attended a ‘Returning Sons’ weekend. It was very different to any men’s event I had been to before and the teaching was very helpful. My eyes and heart were opened to who Jesus is in a new way. I realised that I had been fearful and needed to repent of that. Since then my daily walk with Jesus has significantly changed. 

I have freedom and a greater expectation of what is possible when I choose to ask the Holy Spirit to lead me each day. The last few years have been the best so far in my Christian walk. I have found myself hungry and thirsty for more and for God to use me to help other men to discover who they are in Christ.

I live near Watford with my four children and their mother, and am submitted to a local baptist church who are family for me. 

I come from a church-going family upbringing in Northern Ireland, but didn’t experience a personal relationship with God. I left church as a young man and didn’t think much of it during early adult years. I went to university, spent some time abroad and got a job. The freedom of single life away from family brought me to different ways of life. I had some close friends over the years and a passion for getting outside and enjoying the beautiful countryside around me, but I opened a door also to some fairly corrupt ways, causing harm to myself and those around me. I returned to church around the time of getting married at 30 years old, again without a strong sense of relationship or commitment. After beginning to attend a home group I got closer to the bible and began to feel pulled by God and sense a realness there that became bigger year by year. I was baptized in a small evangelical anglican church in about 2015 at around 40 years old. 

Over the last few years I have begun to see freedom from sinful habits, and breakthroughs and renewal in areas of my life - hallelujah!

At the beginning of 2026, I see God bringing me into new spiritual friendships with other believers in my town and surrounding area and in my workplace. With God’s grace and in weakness I have been building habits of personal prayer and reading the word, and of regular prayer with others and more public sharing of my faith.
