After nearly twenty years pastoring Baptist churches in Cardiff, Coventry and Banbury, Mike is now earning a living teaching Religious Education and Philosophy (currently at Chenderit School, Middleton Cheney, Northamptonshire) in order to continue a ministry of teaching, writing and encouragement for the wider church.

Mike ...
is an accredited minister of the
Baptist Union of Great Britain
is a personal member of the Evangelical Alliance
holds a University of Oxford M.A. in Theology
is a qualified teacher
has been a local co-ordinator for New Wine Networks
has spoken at Leading Edge, and New Wine conferences


Mike's acknowledged strength is biblically sound, scholarly rooted teaching which is accessible and understandable to people of all backgrounds. He particularly enjoys teaching with "PowerPoint" - using photos from his extensive travelling, maps, timelines, graphics, video and sound effects to bring the scriptures alive.

He is passionate about the equipping of the local church; the training, care and support of church leaders, both in the UK and in developing world countries; and learning to stop trying to use the Holy Spirit, and instead to let Him use us.
