Matt Searles

After theological college, Matt served four years as an assistant pastor in a church in London, before moving into training roles. The topic of his doctorate was biblical theology, with a particular focus on the Psalms.

He has written many books of devotions on the Psalms, Isaiah, and Matthew’s gospel and is also a songwriter, including recording six albums of Psalms set to music.

Matt has also trained as a mindfulness teacher, seeking to bring some of the insights of mindfulness to a Christian audience, in an explicitly Christian way.

He lives in Cumbria with his wife and daughter and, when not working, he is probably found out on the fells, doing something creative, or drinking tea.
