Information
Born and bred in Sheffield Greg first studied History and
trained as a teacher. After a spell working in Hampshire he
went to Oxford to study Theology and prepare for ordination in the
Anglican church.
Greg worked in parishes in Bradford for nearly 10 years before
coming to York St John as Chaplain in 1987.
His research interest focuses on how people ‘construct’ faith, and
in particular, the role of institutional religion in a very
‘noninstitutional’ age. He has a particular interest in the
Anglican tradition and is involved in the York St John project on
religion and faith in York.
He teaches Christian and Biblical studies across the
Foundation Degree, Undergraduate and Postgraduate Programmes.
