À propos de l'auteur
Biographie de Susan Jones
Poet, writer, musician, minister and spiritual guide, Rev Dr Susan Jones is passionate that faith be sung and spoken authentically in her context of today's Aotearoa New Zealand. During her 25 years of ordained ministry, Susan developed skills in curating worship which blend theology, metaphor, and context with inclusive spirituality. Her writing has been informed by her roles as a teacher, spiritual director, supervisor and minister.She's completed a doctorate in theology too. Susan engages respectfully with diverse beliefs and opinions; distilling complex ideas, making change accessible. She brings a gentle, quirky sense of humour to her writing. Susan's coffee shop conversations trilogy integrates years of church, study, scholarly observation, struggle and no small measure of pain, undergirded by authenticity, deep faith, and a sense of the numinous.
Meeting the spiritual and pastoral needs of people in LGBTQI community has been a particular focus. Through her contemporary lyrics and liturgy, Susan has encouraged her parish churches to progress in their inclusive journey. Now retired to Dunedin, Susan is devoting her time to writing and has 4 books recently released and forthcoming in 2022.
