Description: "The renowned Anglican biblical scholar and theologian Charlie Moule, as he was popularly known, came from an eminent church and missionary family. He obtained a first at Cambridge and trained for ordination at Ridley Hall where his grandfather was once Principal and where he himself became Vice-Principal at the age of 28. His Cambridge career culminated in his appointment as Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity, a post he held for 25 years, where he influenced a generation of Anglican leaders including Rowan Williams (at whose wedding he officiated), John Sentamu, and his successor as Lady Margaret Professor, Graham Stanton. Charlie Moule died in 2007. He produced a number of definitive texts in New Testament studies, but here is not the scholarly professor, but the humble and prayerful man (nicknamed Holy Mouley) reflecting widely on Christian practice and belief, biblical questions and contemporary challenges. The text of Rowan Williams memorial service address is included and his nephew Patrick Moule provides a preface." -- Publisher's description.
