Having studied at University there, I spent part of my graduate stud- ies in Cambridge and in Oxford, before moving to Cambridge in 2014 after finishing my PhD. I am a Reformation historian, and I teach in the Cambridge History Faculty and at Girton College, where I am a Fellow. I am currently an elder at Downing Place United Reformed Church, Cam- bridge. I convene its World Church and World Mission group, and serve as a lay preacher in the area. Since last summer, I am married to Joan, a Dubliner histo- rian lecturer at King’s College London. We live in a market town outside Cam- bridge called St Neots. Cover: The ‘College’ where the medieval Barbi hid to learn the Bible by heart. (Photograph: Gabriella Peyrot)
