Peter Rae has recently retired (at least semi-retired) from three decades at the Nazarene Theological College in Manchester, including fifteen years as Academic Dean/VP Academic. I have worked with him in facilitating an MA leadership module over the past few years and on this episode of the podcast we chatted about his story.
Our conversation ranged from the early years, growing up in a family whose story is intertwined with that of NTC, through his journey into the world of theology and academia. We talked about an old motto of NTC (‘scholarship on fire’) and what it means to hold a commitment to careful study and a commitment to ministry together. We touched a little on the phase of life where we both find ourselves (Peter is a few weeks older than me), with some advice for people approaching retirement, and as ever, we finished with something Peter would tell his 20-year-old self.
