About the College of Preachers

We are here to help preachers.

We're a network of preachers, some experienced and some new to the task, ordained and lay, from different denominations and traditions, drawn together by a shared belief that good preaching matters, who want to help each other fulfil their preaching ministry.

We warmly welcome others wanting to join us to develop and share their gifts.


To individuals. .

we offer varied opportunities to enrich preaching, in particular through

• open seminars for basic and more advanced preaching tuition, and discussion of important issues for preachers
• our conferences - occasions to meet leading preachers from this and other countries, to attend workshops run by College tutors, and to share fellowship and experiences with other preachers
• a variety of resource material - magazine articles, sermons, reviews and learning modules - in print and on line
• options for further study leading to a certificate or masters degree in theology (preaching).

We regularly work with. .

other bodies engaged in the training of clergy and lay preachers, to whom we are able to offer

• tutors with special skills in different aspects of preaching who can contribute to training programmes and
• events already planned
  seminars and workshops prepared and run by the College, tailored to meet specific learning needs.
  

We believe that. . 

• preaching is God's calling
• faithful preaching is vital to the life of the church and the sharing of the gospel
• preaching should be fresh, biblical and directly relevant to contemporary experience and events
• there are different ways of preaching and it is important to explore and develop them all
  preachers can learn from each other.
