| 0:00.0 | We then saw in the distance the British Army tanks and here we were between this crowd |
| 0:07.0 | and the soldiers coming to dismantle the barricade and all I could hear from behind us were shouts of traitors |
| 0:15.0 | and I honestly didn't know whether a rock would hit the back of our heads or a bullet would go through our backs. |
| 0:22.7 | Welcome, everybody. This is Simon Gilbo with Inspired, and this week we've got another fantastic |
| 0:27.9 | guest. His name is Ken Fanta Clark. It's Bishop Ken Clark, and welcome, Ken. |
| 0:33.3 | Thank you so much, Simon. Great to be with you. |
| 0:35.8 | It is great to have you indeed. Now, listen, in terms of our connection, I first heard you speak, I think, a conference, international conference in 2001, 2002-ish. I studied All Nations with your daughter Tanya. And so you're old enough to be my dad. How old are you, early 70s? |
| 0:55.0 | I am 71 and I will be 72 next month and I'm not one of these people who is so sensitive about their age |
| 1:04.0 | that if they're ever asked what age they are, they will reply something like I was born in the year 19 mind your own business. |
| 1:11.9 | Brilliant. |
| 1:18.7 | Listen, I'm trusting that you've got several decades more wisdom to show for it in this interview. |

| 1:27.5 | So listen, why don't you just give us a potted history of your upbringing childhood? Okay, happily do that. Well, one of my claims to fame, Simon, is that I was born |
| 1:34.6 | in the same time as the famous golfer Rory McElroy. And I would love to tell you that I taught |
| 1:42.5 | him all he knows about golf, but I would have to ask the |
| 1:46.3 | Lord to forgive me for that, because that would be a total lie. In fact, I often say my golf is apostolic, |
| 1:53.0 | because like the apostles, like the apostles, I go here, there and everywhere, Simon. I spent most |
| 1:59.1 | of the time looking for the ball. When I find a ball, |
| 2:02.7 | the delight is inexpressible. It is joy unspeakable to find a ball, especially if it's somebody |
| 2:08.6 | else's. It was lost and now is found. Brilliant. Exactly. But Hollywood is where I grew up, |
| 2:15.1 | and it's not Hollywood, California. It's Hollywood County Down, just a few miles from Belfast. |
| 2:22.0 | I'm an only child. |
