The Miracle, the Mission & the "Nexo"In this moving episode, I sit down with one of my dearest friends—a man whose story defies logic and radiates hope. Once on the edge of death, he was miraculously saved by Jesus—and that moment changed everything. Not just for him… but for countless others around the world. Now a gifted polyglot, living in Rome, he became a unifier of Christians across nations during the isolation of COVID, building bridges with language, love, and light. But it’s not just his words that speak volumes—it’s his heart. One of the most generous, selfless souls you’ll ever hear of, he has a passion for lifting people out of suicidal despair and helping them discover the treasure of their unique God-given potential.In this episode, we talk:

• The miracle moment that saved his life • What fuels his global mission of unity and hope

• How he helps people conquer darkness and rediscover joy

• And yes, the unforgettable day he surprised me by taking me to meet my family in Italy

His story is a living reminder: You matter. You’re not alone. And your gift is needed now more than ever.

A Tale of Crime, Chips, and Grace: Imagine entrusting your life to someone you’d once arrested—someone who had, in fact, snatched your police baton right out of your hands in a fish and chip shop. A ridiculous scenario, isn’t it? But life, I've learned, has a funny way of getting your attention.Back in 1994, I was fresh into my policing career, and Gram Seed—a six-foot-seven tower of trouble—was less “gentle giant” and more “walking public nuisance.” After a brief but memorable encounter over salt, vinegar, and an unlawfully commandeered baton, I sent Gram off to prison for theft and public disorder. Fast forward a few months, and Gram reappeared—a changed man, he claimed. Something about meeting Jesus and coming back from the brink of death through prayer. Naturally, I was skeptical. But life moved on, and Gram and I didn’t cross paths again for a decade. Not until I had what you might call a supernatural nudge that led me to church.Walking into Tees Valley Community Church for the first time, I half expected to go under the radar. What I saw instead was Gram, arms lifted skyward, singing his heart out. The man who once made police work a bit too eventful now had two cherubic boys darting around his feet and a wife radiating calm beside him.I leaned over to someone else I knew, my friend Keith. “So, has Gram really stopped committing crime?”Keith raised an eyebrow. “Far as I know, he’s got a prison ministry now. Helping others leave crime behind.”Naturally, I wasn’t fully convinced. But I kept coming back—partly intrigued, partly to make sense of this new Gram. The sermons struck an unexpected chord. There was warmth, too—a kind of welcoming sincerity I wasn’t used to in my line of work. Usually, people only call the police when something’s gone wrong. But these people seemed genuinely pleased to see me, not because they needed to report a break-in but simply because I was there.Six months in, after wrestling with truths I couldn’t deny, I finally stepped forward when the pastor asked if anyone wanted to trust Jesus. A kind older gentleman, Ernie Ruddick, led me in a simple prayer of repentance—a fancy word for turning away from the old and stepping into wisdom. Or, as the Greeks call it, metanoia.Then came the baptisms. And guess who was scheduled to perform them? Yes, Gram Seed, former arrestee, current model citizen, and now a man of faith. I wasn’t sure how that conversation would go. “Fancy baptising the guy who sent you to prison?” doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue.But Gram, to my surprise, was overjoyed. “A privilege,” he called it. And here’s the twist—I reckon the privilege was all mine.Since then, Gram and I have driven miles together, visiting prisons, churches and even an aquarium! To watch lives change before our eyes. He has this uncanny knack for knowing exactly how many people need to step forward, and every time, they do. And yes, our road trip jokes are so bad they’d make Tim Vine wince.What began in a chip shop became one of my life’s greatest treasures—a living reminder of Romans 8:28: “God works all things for the good of those who love Him.” Even the toughest moments can become growth opportunities when viewed through a different lens.So here I am, sharing my story through Turn2Wisdom. My hope? That you, fellow traveller, find the courage to seek wisdom, step into your purpose, and discover peace beyond measure. Life is full of surprises—even the kind that start with a stolen baton and a fish supper. Shall we journey together?

Episode 2: We Are Family – There Is No Them and Us, There Is Only Us

In this powerful follow-up episode, we dive deep into a truth that could transform your street, your community, and your life: loving God and loving your neighbour as yourself requires wisdom and conflict. management.

Join us as we revisit old stories with fresh meaning—from the valleys of Wales to the heart of everyday relationships—and reflect on the real-life examples where communication breaks down. This episode is a reminder and a rallying cry: there’s no them and us… there’s only us.

With warmth, humour, and unflinching honesty, we explore:

• Why text in letters and messages only convey a fraction of the meaning.

• How to DEWOLF communications

• Raw, moving stories of past experiences that led to learning and growing.

You’ll hear memories of faith in action, moments of divine disruption, and the sparks of turning to wisdom, that bring healing where it’s needed most.

This episode isn’t just a story—it’s a challenge:

To see your family, friends and neighbours through a different lens.

To believe your community can be different.

To step into the “we” that Jesus prayed for and role model the relationships "we" need.

If you’ve ever felt the ache for deeper connection or wondered how you can make a difference where you are—this conversation is for you.

A true story of confrontation, redemption… and unexpected brotherhood.

In 1994, I was a brand-new police officer, fresh out of training and eager to serve. Just into my probationary period on the streets of Middlesbrough, a call came in that would change my life—and someone else’s—forever.

That someone was Gram: 6’7”, built like a rugby forward, and raging outside a pub in a bright yellow Pringle sweater. What happened next was straight out of a film—if that film was part police drama, part divine appointment. One moment he had my baton in his hands, towering over me. The next, we were locked in a strange dance of courage, humour, and God’s unseen grace.

But the story didn’t end there.

Years later, after a spiral of violence and prison time, Gram was moments from death when Christians gathered to pray him back to life—just as the doctors were preparing to turn off the machines. That same man, once feared and lost, became a man of peace, baptising inmates, leading prison officers to faith, and eventually… baptising me.

In this first episode, Gram and I revisit that night outside the chippy, relive the surreal encounter that brought us together, and unpack the raw, gritty stories that led us both to Jesus. We talk about trauma, prison, pride, humility, and the unstoppable power of grace.

If you’ve ever wondered whether people can really change—whether hope still exists for the hardest stories—this is the episode for you.

This isn’t just a story about a police officer and a prisoner.

This is a story about two men who became brothers—not through blood, but through the blood of Christ.
