Gardener From Manchester Claims He is God

Manchester, England – A local man is making waves with his extraordinary claim: he is God. James, a landscape gardener from South Manchester, has amassed a growing following who believe his assertion. His story is the focus of the new BBC Radio 4 podcast, God Next Door.

Journalist Darryl Morris has spent four years following James, exploring the depths of his conviction and the impact on those who believe him. The podcast delves into James’ daily life, which includes fitness classes, games nights, and sermons alongside his gardening job.

Despite his ordinary appearance, James’ followers describe him as “electric” and life-changing. Some share deeply personal testimonies of how they found solace and purpose through their belief in him. One woman, Bernadette, says she was overwhelmed by emotion upon meeting James, convinced he was her reason for being.

However, not everyone is convinced. Morris challenges James’ claims, questioning if he might be “blagging it.” James vehemently denies this, insisting he is truly divine and on a mission to bring peace to the world.

The podcast has sparked conversation, with listeners praising Morris’s insightful exploration of the unusual story. Some have even drawn comparisons to the work of documentary filmmaker Louis Theroux.

As the investigation continues, listeners are left to ponder the nature of faith, the power of belief, and the extraordinary life of a man who claims to be the supreme being.
