Join us on Saturday 7 February 2026 from 2pm, for a panel discussion moderated by Rev. Drs. Ian Duffield and Rob Hoch-Yidokodiltona

Panelists include Alan Billings, Christine Dutton, Noel Irwin, and James Bullock

Venue – United Reformed Church, Norfolk Street, Sheffield, S1 2JB or on Zoom

In Radical Disciple readers are introduced to John Vincent’s work by way of those who knew him best: students, friends, and colleagues. Each tells a story or offers a kind of testament, “warts” and all? as John would put it. In John Vincent’s thinking, this is a “serious kind of book”—it relays the facts without missing “the many-splendoured thing.” So, along with the facts, readers will find the dramatic, amusing, serious, and anecdotal. Most importantly, they will find a living testament to John Vincent’s vision of radical urban theology and discipleship.
