Graham Gould - theological lecturer and writer

About Graham Gould

I studied theology at Cambridge for my BA and PhD, held two research fellowships in Oxford, and was a lecturer in theology and religious studies at King's College London from 1990 to 2003.

I am now a freelance lecturer and writer in theology, with special interests in the New Testament and the early Church, liturgy, and contemporary theology in the Church of England.

I am co-editor (with Professor John Barton) of the Journal of Theological Studies, an international academic journal published by Oxford University Press.

Among many Church of England activities I serve as church warden and treasurer of Harrow Green Parish Church (Holy Trinity & St Augustine of Hippo) in Leytonstone, London E11, where I am also authorized to preach by the Bishop of Barking.
