Gypsies and Jesus
A Traveller Theology
Gypsy and Traveller religiosity is a field of study that has long been dominated by non-GRT voices. In this book Dr. Horne, the first person of Romany decent in the UK to be awarded a PhD in Theology, expertly reclaims a past and a future for Gypsies and Travellers.
Steven Horne is the first Romany from the UK to be awarded a PhD in Theology (November 2020). He works as a Licensed Lay Minister in the Church of England, leading a 'fresh expressions' outreach mission in a major town. He also delivers lectures and training in universities, theological seminaries, churches and more, to clergy, students, teachers, healthcare professionals and government, both local and national. His mother is a gorger (non-Gypsy) and his father is a Romany Gypsy. He grew up within two cultures: an amalgamation of Gypsy values and ‘settled’ practices.
