Andrew Perriman

My wife and I have lived in various parts of the world over the last 30 years: the Far East, Africa, the Middle East, the Netherlands, and now London.

I’ve combined theological studies and writing with pastoral and missional work in a wide range of contexts. I have a degree in English Language and Literature from Oxford and an Mphil and PhD from the London School of Theology, of which I am an Associate Research Fellow. I teach New Testament occasionally, and I am an extension studies tutor and examiner for LST’s MA in Aspects and Implications of Biblical Interpretation.

My overriding theological interest at the moment is in how we retell the biblical story as we negotiate the difficult transition from the centre to the margins of our culture following the collapse of Western Christendom. I have published a number of academic articles and books and blog regularly at www.postost.net.

I also work with Communitas International, a wonderful organization that seeks to develop open, passionate, creative communities of missional faith. I should stress, though, that the views expressed on this blog do not necessarily coincide with the position of Communitas International on the matters discussed.
