Revd Dr Nick Moore

As Warden, Nick oversees the life of formation and worship at Cranmer Hall. Together with the senior leadership team he has responsibility for Church of England and Free Church training, independent students, and our academic programmes. He enjoys teaching New Testament and Greek, and is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.

Born and raised in Durham, and with a background in (and love for!) all things French, Nick trained for ministry at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford; while there, he completed a DPhil in Theology. He was ordained in Durham Cathedral and served as assistant curate at Stranton Church in Hartlepool. He came to Cranmer as a tutor in 2017, and became Warden in 2023. He is passionate about conveying the wealth of the biblical and Christian tradition to each and every person, and carrying the gospel across languages and cultures. He has written extensively on the Letter to the Hebrews and the General Letters in the New Testament, and his current research explores the idea of heaven as a temple, shedding light on the priestly and sacrificial work of Jesus which opens God’s presence to all believers.

Nick is married to Bekah, who shares his love of languages and ministry, and they have two children.
