The Initiate's Blog - The Crucial First Six Months (Electronic book text)

The Initiate's blog is a satirical and thought-provoking yarn about the second coming of Christ. Well, he said he would come back - so no big surprise there, but this time he turns up in Burnley, Lancashire of all places, his first public address being at a Golf Club Society dinner. Throughout his eventful six-month visit His world turns upside down. The wine in a mediocre restaurant is so bad that he turns it back into water. He eats a kebab after a few too many Boddingtons, resulting in the hangover from hell (sorry, couldn't resist), so it's nicely reassuring to know that even the son of God can't come up with the miracle cure for that. As only someone who isn't from our world can do, He provides unique tongue-in-cheek insights into modern life, and reminders of the idiosyncrasies which become obscured by the repetitive daily grind. His FKGs (five key goals) during his six month stint are to develop a VERY limited number of key personal relationships; identify a Plan B location (in case England proves to be a bad fit for the Mission); identify his medium-term modus operandi (i.e. for the following 2-3 years); monitor and gain an in-depth understanding of Earth's key issues, and their implications for the Mission and identify the strengths and weaknesses of Earth's major current religions, and the associated problems and opportunities these offer.
