Institution: The Queen’s Foundation for Ecumenical Theological Education
Position: Cohort 2 Fellow
Revd Dr Carlton Turner is tutor in Contextual Theology and Mission Studies, as well as Deputy Director of Research, at the Queen's Foundation, Birmingham. He self-defines as a Caribbean Contextual and Practical Theologian and engages in further research into the intersections of Christian theology and decoloniality, particularly within the British imperial history and context. His first book, Overcoming Self-Negation explores the identity and church practices within the Anglophone African Caribbean, and his most recent book, Caribbean Contextual Theology: An Introduction, is the latest iteration of a Caribbean theological reflection. Carlton is a Bahamian Anglican priest and theologian who sits on both the Faith and Order Commission of the Church of England as well as the Faith and Order Commission of the World Council of Churches. He is often lecturing or presenting on issues around reparations, decolonisation, racial inequality, and colonial oppression and believes that theological explorations into these issues require deep psychological insights.
Join our innovative exploration at the nexus of psychology and theology. Our project aims to enrich theological research with the latest psychological insights, offering a unique opportunity for scholars to deepen their understanding of human nature and ethics.
