About Me
- Doorman-Priest
- About me: I am married with two children still to fly the nest. I live in West Yorkshire. I work as a teacher of Religious studies and train student teachers. Until recently I also worked as a relief nightclub doorman. I am now a graduate of the Yorkshire Ministry Course and am enjoying exoloring my current ministry. I am a radical liberal with Continental and British Christian influences overlaid with a touch of evangelicalism. I know. It is something of a niche market. I find many Christians I meet seriously frustrating and some downright disturbing: I sometimes think I am a misanthrope. I like that in a minister.

Good for you! I hope someone does a video for YouTube.
I love to watch these events.
Spontaneous Glory!
Great fun. Except for the fact I rarely go to malls to shop, I'd love to be in the middle of that.
