It was an honour to write a chapter for this book! I am still sad to have missed the launch but a broken foot scuppered my travel plans...
We're proud of our staff and ecumenical friends who contributed to "Lived Mission in 21st Century Britain," especially Rev Dr Ben Aldous, who was the driving force behind it. Thank you to @SCM_Press and @USPGglobal for hosting the book's launch https://t.co/opVBHmEBl4

As I am in the throes of preparing MA units on Missional Theology in Practice and Majority World Perspectives in Mission, the work of Gustavo Gutiérrez appears repeatedly. There is no way to adequately describe the significance of his influence in the field of #PracticalTheology
Gustavo Gutiérrez, 8 June 1928-22 October 2024. "There is no authentic evangelization that is not accompanied by action on behalf of the poor." We Drink From Our Own Wells

Moved house over the weekend and spotted a #hedgehog in my garden this evening! I may need to rethink plans for tidying up the largely overgrown garden and make sure I keep an eye out for possible hedgehog homes/hiding places...

It was a great day with some fabulous conversations. As an OT scholar & classic movie buff, Prof David Law's 'Moses at the Movies' was a treat & then I put my #PracticalTheology hat on again to talk about #reflexivity! @CliffCollege @OfficialUoM
Fantastic postgraduate study day @OfficialUoM with our brilliant partners at Nazarene Theological College, Cliff College and Luther King House.
