Sadly, I couldn't be there as I was speaking at a men's group in Derbyshire, but here is Paul's account of the bishop's talk:
"He told how at the age of 18 he thought he had everything in life all worked out. Then something happened that changed his life completely.
They first become friends and then she asked if she could introduce him to her best friend. Thinking this would bring them closer together he agreed.
The best friend was Jesus. She shared with him from John 14 where Jesus says he is ‘the way truth and the life’. This brought him to realise that he needed to put his trust in Jesus rather than in himself. From that point on his life was changed forever.
One of the questions that was asked was “did he marry the girl”? The bishop said the funny thing was that after she shared the verse from John with him he never saw her again"
