Fundamentals

Welcome to An Exercise in the Fundamentals of Orthodoxy. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to the RSS feed to keep up to date with what I'm writing. Alternatively, if you want to contact Peter in relation to issues of human sexuality, please use the contact form here. Thanks for visiting!

Charismatic, Reformed and PostGay, married to Gayle, Peter is the Curate at Christ Church Ware, an Evangelical Anglican church in the Diocese of St Albans. He became a Christian in 1994 and since then has worshipped in a variety of contexts, beginning in house churches (Vineyard and New Frontiers) and settling in the Church of England. He attended Vicar Factory in Oxford where he helped to setup the international networking group Anglican Mainstream which he is still involved with.

Peter has been speaking and writing on issues of sexuality and identity for a number of years and in diverse places (from Spring Harvest to the Pink Paper and the BBC). He works with groups like Living Waters UK and TFT to bring the message of restoration and wholeness for all of God’s people and is currently the chair of Redeemed Lives UK. His relationship with Jesus is not just with a God who has saved him but who is also at work in his world, restoring those within it who turn to him to their intended being.

When he’s not watching his complete collection of Doctor Who videos and DVDs he enjoys being one of only 7 people in Britain able to sing Bronski Beat’s "Smalltown Boy" at the correct pitch. Supermode eat your heart out.

Peter is a member of the New Wine Leaders Network and Forward in Faith UK. He and Gayle have a son, Reuben Johannes Hugh, who was born in May 2008.
