Why are olives so bitter straight off the tree? What gives pomegranates their vivid colour?

If you love the moment a surprising food fact makes someone say, “I never knew that,” help Holy Trinity Healing Ministry make talking-to-camera videos about ingredients mentioned in Scripture and the dishes they’ve inspired in HTHM’s cookbooks.

Ancient scripture meets modern science

We provide the science material, the Scripture connection and the cookbook details. You bring them to life on camera. Start with one ingredient, explain a surprising detail in everyday language and show how it connects to a dish viewers could make at home. Where the supplied material covers nutrition, share what the evidence says about the ingredient. Let viewers know which HTHM cookbook they can buy if they’d like to try the recipe.

You’ll work independently as part of a wider team of scientists and teachers alongside our bishop, Dr Watkis, a food scientist and Chartered Scientist (CSci). This role suits someone with experience in science, food science, teaching or science communication who enjoys talking to a general audience. Start with one finished video and take on more topics if you’d like. A phone, good light, a quiet room and a clean background are enough.

This is an unpaid, home-based volunteer role open to people across the UK.
