Visiting Scholar in Contemporary Spirituality

Home People Dr Ann Conway-Jones

Bio:

Ann Conway-Jones is Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Birmingham.  She is also an Accredited Lay Worker of the Church of England.

Ann’s PhD thesis, involving a range of Jewish and Christian mystical writings on the heavenly temple, has been published as Gregory of Nyssa’s Tabernacle Imagery in Its Jewish and Christian Contexts (OUP, 2014).   She has continued to research the exegetical foundations of early Christian mystical theology, recently producing a series of audio lectures entitled Moses, Mount Sinai, and Early Christian Mystics.

Ann is also interested in early Jewish-Christian relations, and in the new insights that Jewish New Testament scholarship is developing.  She has written articles aimed at Christian preachers in The Expository Times and Theology, on talking about Jews and Judaism with respect, even if that involves challenging New Testament anti-Jewish rhetoric.

Ann combines up-to-date scholarship with over twenty years’ experience of teaching adults.  She is passionate about making academic research accessible and relevant.  She is an associate tutor at The Queen’s Foundation; Woodbrooke Quaker Studies Centre; Oxford University Department of Continuing Education; and the Birmingham Diocese.  She writes regularly for Roots: Worship and Learning Resources for the Whole Church.

Ann is actively involved in Jewish–Christian dialogue.  For four years she served as Honorary Secretary of The Council of Christians and Jews and is now Chair of Birmingham CCJ.
