Ellen Eames
Tutor in Homiletics (Preaching)
“The calling to preach is one of the most exciting ministries to which God can call us. I’m grateful for the community of preachers, both lay and ordained, from whom I continue to learn and be inspired, and it is an immense privilege to teach and encourage others on that same journey.”
