Ian has had some contrasting steps in his journey.  Raised Presbyterian, then while serving as an Army Officer, had a dramatic conversion experience. This led to a course correction into full-time ministry in Canberra-Goulburn Diocese, ultimately moving from an Assistant Bishop to the role of Anglican Bishop to the Australian Defence Force.  Significant in his formation were numerous mission trips, taking teams around the world for ministry and teaching, focussed on renewal and Holy Spirit.  He is currently Chair of SOMA (Sharing of Ministries Abroad) and part of the Core Steering Group for the Anglican Renewal Network of Australia. Ian is married to Jill and has four children and seven grandchildren. Some say he is retired.
