Martin Weir (1987)

Although I was accredited in 1987, in truth I had been helping to lead services since I joined the Youth Fellowship group at St James Methodist Church in Woolton, Liverpool where I grew up.

After studying at Nottingham University, I have worked in the banking industry for the past 31 years, and have found the experience of the last few years in particular to be challenging in terms of work and faith.

As a local preacher, I am aware of the tremendous privilege and responsibility of leading God’s people in worship. I enjoy exploring different ways of helping congregations to worship God, for example through the appropriate use of technology. In preaching, I consider that it is important to relate the gospel message to daily living because, as Christians, we are encouraged to reflect God's love for each of us to the world around us, every day.
