Six Hours with Twelve Prophets
2024-09-19 09:30 - 15:30 | Epiphany House, Truro, TR1 3DR , United Kingdom
At the end of the (English) Old Testament are twelve prophetic books, commonly called “The Minor Prophets”, mainly because they are shorter in length than the “major” prophets. Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address is 272 words and lasted two minutes; but it is doubtful whether many people remember a word from Edward Everett’s two-hour speech which preceded it.
In this workshop/retreat we will “helicopter” over these twelve books (were they ever intended as one book?), observing their main themes and reflecting on their relevance for our lives and work today.
Rev Howard Peskett was Senior Hebrew Scholar of Cambridge University. He is a Cornish bard and the Coordinator of the Cornish Bible Project. He has been a teacher in Singapore, Bristol and Rural Dean in Penwith. He has spent a lifetime encouraging believers that they can discover for themselves the meaning and wonder of the Bible as they seek to love and follow Christ.

We are delighted to welcome Revd Paul Bradbury to Truro to hear about his new book In the Fullness of Time.
Weaving together parable, storytelling, travelogue history and poetry, Paul journeys from rural Norfolk to inner-city London, from a radical missional community in Lincolnshire, to a traditional village parish in Dorset, to explore what the church looks like today, and how local parish communities are wrestling with the tensions between the value of inherited church, and the need to look to the future.

Gypsies and Travellers are not ‘the other’, they are you and me – often hidden, frequently maligned, always marginalised, seldom understood.
Join Rev’d Dr Steven Horne for an introduction to ‘Traveller Theology’, learn more about one of our nation’s most vulnerable groups, explore a culture rooted in hundreds of years of Christian heritage, and find out best practices for inclusion of Gypsy, Roma and Traveller people in your church.
The Reverend Dr Steven Horne is the first person of Romany Gypsy heritage in the UK to earn a PhD in theology (2020), the first to sit on the Archbishop’s CMEAC (Centre for minority, ethnic, Anglican concerns), and in 2022, Horne authored ‘Gypsies and Jesus: A Traveller Theology’ (DLT Books), the first ‘Traveller theology’.
Horne has lectured in the US, Europe and the UK, and has regular involvement with the BBC, the CofE’s Racial Justice Unit and other key stakeholders in both the media and public sphere. In June 2024, he was ordained in Canterbury Cathedral by Archbishop Justin Welby, and is currently serving his curacy & community in the Ashford Town Parish in the Diocese of Canterbury, where he lives with his family.
