How did you first come into contact with the Army? My parents were the corps officers at Hayle in Cornwall when I was born, so I was taken there soon afterwards.
If you could have an unlimited supply of one thing, what would it be? Tickets to Chelsea FC matches. If you were to create a slogan for your life, what would it be? Try listening!
What is the most interesting thing about your role – and the most frustrating? Editing the wide range of articles people send to Salvationist. Unanswered emails are the most frustrating things!
What do you do in your spare time? I read, run, play online chess and occasionally go to the cinema.
What is your favourite kind of holiday? My wife, Jayne, and I enjoy short European city breaks, but we also love visiting our son and daughter-in-law in Brazil every few years.
Which Bible figure would you like to meet and what would you ask them? The boy who gave Jesus his loaves and fishes. I’d ask what he did with his life. What is your favourite hymn or worship song? ‘Jesus, Thou Art Everything to Me’ (SASB 502).
What is your favourite food? Vegetable biryani.
Apart from the Bible, which book would you want on a desert island? Essay Collection and Other Short Pieces by CS Lewis.
If you could be in a film, which would it be and what character would you play? The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I’d want to play Aragorn, the king.
If you had to be handcuffed to one person for a day, who would it be? Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell. He’s a great communicator and it’d be interesting to witness his interactions with people.
What sport would you compete in if you were in the Olympics? The 1500m. I’ve enjoyed running for many years and was a big fan of Sebastian Coe, who won the 1500m Olympic gold medal in 1980 and 1984.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given? People respond better to encouragement than criticism.
What was the first record, tape or CD that you ever owned? The Tears of a Clown by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles.

What is the most valuable thing you possess? God’s love.

What is your favourite Bible verse? ‘Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labour in the Lord is not in vain’ (1 Corinthians 15:58). God uses our service for him, even if we don’t always see the outcome.
If you could meet any historical figure, who would you choose? John Newton, the converted slave-ship captain and writer of ‘Amazing Grace’.
What made you want to become an officer? I experienced a significant spiritual breakthrough as a student, which confirmed a vague sense of calling to officership that I’d had during my teens.
What one thing would you change about the Army? I’d like to see Salvationists become more aware of and engaged with the wider Church. We have a lot to give and there is lot we can receive.
