My name is Steven Nicholas Colborne and I'm an author, musician and counsellor from the UK.As a youth, I developed a passion for music and after taking classical guitar lessons formed a heavy metal band named Marconi's Voodoo with two friends from secondary school. The band enjoyed some success on the UK music scene, releasing several studio-produced EPs and undertaking a UK tour after winning a talent competition in Kerrang! magazine.I went on to study Commercial Music at the University of Westminster. After graduating with first-class honours in 2003, I took up a job working for Beggars Group in an online promotion role. I then took a stress-related break from the music industry and worked as a street fundraiser for Greenpeace for around nine months. When I returned to the music industry, I accepted a role working for an online promotion and digital marketing company called Motion Group.A series of unusual spiritual experiences in my twenties led to me being sectioned under the Mental Health Act and during my stay on a psychiatric ward I read the Bible, repented of my sins, and gave my life to Jesus Christ. In the years that followed I became a passionate and highly engaged Christian, enjoying a wonderful life season of worshipping as part of a church community and undertaking evangelistic activities.My passion for the Christian faith prompted me to return to university to study a postgraduate course in Philosophy and Religion and after graduating with a Postgraduate Certificate I proceeded to embark upon a career as an author of philosophical theology books. I also became a prolific blogger, writing more than 500 original articles.In total, I wrote and self-published seventeen books; some full-length works, some short read books, and some compilations. My most popular book is titled God's Grand Game: Divine Sovereignty and the Cosmic Playground, though this received mixed reviews due to being controversial in nature.I continued to suffer admissions to psychiatric hospital in my thirties, though I view these experiences largely as a calling from God to assist people in distress who have received severe abuse from a corrupt system.At the age of 40, I began to be well known and this led to intense spiritual attack as many people feared the light in me and sought to cause me harm. These spiritual attacks led to an experience in which I became overwhelmed in my home and after placing a Bible on my chest I cut my wrists and throat, wanting to be with Jesus in Heaven. I was taken to hospital and suffered a three-day long experience in which I experienced an altered reality and thought I was in everlasting hell.When I began to regain ordinary consciousness, the first word that entered my mind was 'Jesus' and I prayed to God throughout a recovery process that took several years. The Lord began to tell me that I am Jesus at His second coming (much to my confusion and surprise) and that my suffering has served a purpose.Following the suicide attempt, I experienced hostility from all my close friends and family and the Lord told me to focus solely on my relationship with Him, assuring me that He would act as my Father, Friend, and Counsellor.Since that time and during the lengthy recovery process, I continued to work on creative projects and in 2025 I wrote and released a new book titled Reflections: Enlightening Insights Into the Divine Mystery (a free PDF version can be read via the download link below).In 2026 I released a five-track electro-rock record titled Speak Life EP under the name Agony and Ecstasy and a 'best-of' album of Marconi's Voodoo recordings titled Revolution.I recently became so dishearted with the lack of interest in my work (and my books especially) that I chose to close my author website, so my books are currently only available as second-hand copies from third-party retailers.Should you be interested in acquiring a copy of one of my books or finding out more about my music or counselling work, you are welcome to email me.
