I'm Rev Dr Steve Taylor and I live in Dunedin|Ōtepoti in Aotearoa New Zealand. I'm married to Dr Lynne Taylor, who really appreciated the first round of Psychology Cross-Training for Theologians in 2023. Together we enjoy two young adult daughters, one who lives in Oxford, England and the other in Te Wai Pounamu. I am Director of AngelWings Ltd and offer empirical research and educational consultancy to organisations seeking to navigate change. I maintain academic connections to Flinders University, South Australia and University of Otago | Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka. I research in practical theology and missiology and have a range of publications in church, change and innovation. Current projects include digital activism as justice-making, public acts of craftivism and a re-appraisal of the role of Western mission in the history of Pacific blackbirding. I'm looking forward to strengthening my interdisciplinary research skills and building networks.
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.
