I really enjoyed giving the first lecture of this year’s Trauma and Theology module at Westcott House @westcotthousecam.bsky.social, before whizzing down to Winchelsea for Nathanael Hayler’s induction as Rector! What a day!

Called to Serve: The Revd Will Rose-Moore's young vocations story
YouTube video by Chelmsford Diocese Called to Serve: The Revd Will Rose-Moore's young vocations story

I enjoyed filming this little video with the team at @chelmsdio.bsky.social to tell my story of vocation and to encourage other young people to explore what it means to be called. We all have a gift and a calling to offer - what's yours?

You can watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG3g...

Super pleased to see my article 'Theology and Masculinity: Developments 25 Years On' published in Feminist Theology today! I respond to Ward's 1999 article on what a theology of masculinity might look like, and show how the field has moved since... doi.org/10.1177/0966... (Need access? Let me know!)

3 years ago, I sat along a riverbank in Somerset reading this as the first book for my PhD work. I’m returning to it today as I start my methodology section, after a supervision this week in which the words β€˜viva’, β€˜submission’, and β€˜examiners’ came up for the plan of the next year…

If you see this - whoever you are, in whatever way I know you (or not!) - consider this an invitation to my First Mass on Sat 27th September at 2.30pm at St John’s, Loughton (on the end of the Central Line). Please pray for all those being ordained and get in touch if you’d like a hard copy!
