Mindful Formation Conference online 15 June 2024
As part of the launch of my new book Mindful Formation: A Pathway to Spiritual Liberation there will be an online conference on Saturday 15 June exploring mindful formation. In discipleship we talk about spiritual formation as intentional practices in spiritual theology that help us to be more like Christ. Mindful formation is spiritual formation through mindfulness.
Five pioneers of Christian mindfulness will share their stories of how mindfulness has shaped them spiritually: including myself, Rich Johnston of Christian Mindfulness, Prof Amy Oden from the US, Pastor Paul Bane from the US and Bev Walker.
To make the conference as accessible as possible tickets are only £10 each.

My new book: Mindful Formation
My new book – Mindful Formation: A Pathway to Spiritual Liberation based on my PhD is published on 17 May 2024. Mindful Formation is how we enable our graced spiritual formation (discipleship) through mindfulness of God. We are always being formed in this world by everything we encounter – including being formed into the patterns of this world (Romans 12:2). We can play an intentional part in opening ourselves up to graced spiritual formation into the likeness of Christ. Here is a link you can pre-order on:

The Upwelling of the Holy Spirit
Here is my article via The Baptist Times on the Upwelling of the Holy Spirit.
Upwelling is an oceanic term where deeper, colder water wells up to the surface of the sea. Spiritually it can describe the experience of spending longer periods in contemplative practice, writes Shaun Lambert
Two ancient models can help us cultivate this space in which to experience the upwelling of God’s Holy Spirit
