Excited to see this conversation published between @mrssarahp.bsky.social and I about how men can engage well and responsibly with feminist theologies! You can read it here: practicaltheologyhub.com?p=2075 @feministtheology.bsky.social

These last twenty-four hours have been powerful; my first of these Holy Week services as a priest. I have stood where Jesus did. I shared a meal with friends as Jesus did. I washed feet as Jesus did. I watched and waited as Jesus did, as others left one by one. I carried the cross as Jesus did.

Yesterday was the "official" release day for Esther Keeps the Score, and I am anxious and excited to share my words with you all. Many thanks to @scmpress.bsky.social for making this process so enjoyable. scmpress.hymnsam.co.uk/books/978033...

So, that’s it. Four years of hard work. Hundreds of books, articles, and chapters read and cited. 72,979 words spread over 250 pages of writing.* That’s right… I have finally submitted my PhD thesis! @westcotthousecam.bsky.social @angliaruskin.bsky.social

I had the pleasure of giving the 2026 Reynolds Sermon in Epping this week, entitled ‘Stories of Men: Exploring Masculinity in the Bible and Christian Faith’. You can watch the video through the link below. youtu.be/eGaIz7lfGe8?...

A final bit of teaching for the Trauma and Theology module today at @westcotthousecam.bsky.social with ordinands and students from across the CTF, looking at the richness of Holy Saturday for trauma survivors and how liturgy (especially the Eucharist) can be useful in post-traumatic remaking.

We are recruiting! Could it be just right for you? Do you know someone you could point in our direction? Please share!

There’s nothing like a website spice up! 💅 www.revdwillrm.com

Super pleased to see my article 'Theology and Masculinity: Developments 25 Years On' published in Feminist Theology today!

3 years ago, I sat along a riverbank in Somerset reading this as the first book for my PhD work. I’m returning to it today as I start my methodology section, after a supervision this week in which the words ‘viva’, ‘submission’, and ‘examiners’ came up for the plan of the next year…

It was great to be broadcast on BBC Radio Wales' All Things Considered this morning, talking all things masculinity and faith. Listen here: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

If you see this - whoever you are, in whatever way I know you (or not!) - consider this an invitation to my First Mass on Sat 27th September at 2.30pm at St John’s, Loughton (on the end of the Central Line). Please pray for all those being ordained and get in touch if you’d like a hard copy!

Excited to be speaking to @karenod.bsky.social and @drkatiecross.bsky.social this afternoon as we begin to craft our chapter 'Moving From Feminist Trauma Theologies to Masculinities' for my forthcoming edited volume with @scmpress.bsky.social on masculinities and trauma in church and theology!

Can I call myself a Barbie theologian yet? #SST2025

And that’s #SST2025 kicked off! It was a pleasure to be the respondent for tonight’s plenary paper, focussing on gender, the Eucharist, and trauma theology. Now time to chill out and enjoy the theological conversation… until my Barbie paper on Wednesday!
