Minister Married to an Agnostic - a conversation #100wcgu

Hi Mike, how's work today?
Cool; so you'll be able to get off a bit early on Friday?
Fab.
Neil told me it's Curry Night tonight, you know the church one for the guys; do you fancy going?
Oh go on; since when did you turn down a Ruby Murray?
Andy is planning on being there and Neil's going, there'll be lots of people you know.
No ones going to try to convert you; you might even have a laugh.
Ok, it's your choice, but you might just enjoy it.
No problem, see you later.
Love you.
Bye
Bye

  1. A Minister married to an agnostic must be quite hard. Did the Minister find religion after they were married or did he/she know the score when they got together?

  2. Better than that - they got married knowing one was a Christian and the other an Aestheist. Over time things have got closer in the middle. A great example of love and respect and understanding and tolerance.

  3. Tempting Mike with a curry? He must be weighing up the curry against a fear of conversion. To have concerns, Mike mustn't have strong agnostic convictions. When our faith is strong, even in agnosticism, we needn't fear attempts to change us. :)

    Well written.

  5. I like this. I was a Church Minister once, but that did not put Mr G off. We agree to differ these days.

  6. I love the use of the rhyming slang! I'm sure there is so much fun that has been missed from concerns about 'church stuff'!
    Great to see you on the 100WCGU
