The WhatsApp conversation went something like this:

Friend: Hey I need your help!
JB: Sure, what’s up?
Friend: Well, as a couple we’re not religious – in fact, we see religion as a spiritual crutch - no offence... 👊
JB: 🙉 None taken, but happy to explore this meme later... So, what’s the problem?
Friend: Wife’s just given birth and says to me, "This is – SHE is! – not a cosmic fluke, she is... designed! I believe in God!"
JB: And?
Friend: Well, we were so happy! And now this 😔 You’ve got to talk to her!
JB: Well, I’m hardly going to talk her out of it, I’m a vicar.😂Let’s have lunch first👊

Do you enjoy evangelism? I relish sharing the good news of Jesus - and no, I don’t wear an E-emblazoned superhero costume!
