"do you know that nothing you do in this life will ever matter, unless it is about loving God and loving the people He has made?”

I've written a book, like many others, that seeks to address a problem that has existed since the dawn of time: people keep turning away from God.
One reason for this is that the “message” keeps getting lost in translation. Christians and churches have developed an unforgiveable habit of painting incorrect pictures of the way things really are, pictures that many people, quite rightly, don’t want to be a part of. Only what these people don’t realise is that very often the pictures they’re looking at are ones of Religion, not God. And having confused Religion with God, they dismiss them both.
There is a key requirement to painting a picture of God that people will stop and take notice of; it can’t be more of the same! People have had enough of looking at pictures of God that are clichéd, manufactured, commercial and untrue.
So I've written a book that sets itself apart because it’s different (not more of the same), it’s simple (not clichéd), it’s deeply personal (not manufactured or commercial) and it’s funny! (somewhat unheard of in Christian literature).
Enjoy!

My Simple Faith: And why some tortoises drive Ferraris
This is a book about God. And everything else.
Like why I hate TV advertisements, why I have an iPod, why I sing Spurs songs, why I’m troubled by Father Christmas, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Mouse, why I keep falling off my bike, why I’d like to become a tortoise and why I’ve discovered that growing roses isn’t so bad after all. But more importantly, it’s about how I’ve come to know what Love is.
And you can read it, you can believe it, you can debate it or even dismiss it. But at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter. Because it’s just my thoughts, my view, my perspective. My understanding of God and all that is.
And that’s it really.
