EP#13 Places Of Hope In The Unravelling With Roy Searle

Al Roxburgh and Jenny Sinclair talk with Roy Searle about his work in leading Christian communities over many decades. From anabaptist communities to monastic movements like the Northumbria community, Roy has witnessed most of the dynamic shifts in churches across the UK. He is equally at home with existing congregations and pioneers experimenting with ways of participating in the mission of God as current systems of church are going through a time of rapid change. In this wide ranging conversation Roy addresses the unravelling of the churches but, more importantly, points to places where he sees the Spirit is gestating fresh movements of God’s life. 

Roy Searle is a companion, and one of the founders, of the Northumbria Community. He also serves as a mentor, spiritual director and worship leader and has worked as a consultant, associate and adviser. His interests include leadership, missiology, new monasticism, Celtic spirituality, and post-Christendom culture. He works ecumenically and has served in various aspects of denominational ministry and is a former President of the Baptist Union of Great Britain. Roy teaches at several colleges and specialises in pioneering and spiritual formation. Roy lives in Northumberland, UK.
