The struggles of long-term ministry

Claire Smith

After working for some years as a nurse, Claire Smith spent many years at Moore Theological College closely studying the Bible, completing a BTh, MA (Theol), and a PhD in New Testament. These days she spends her time writing and teaching women the Bible at conferences. She is married to Rob, and they have an adult son. Some of her favourite things are Beethoven, the Australian bush, being outdoors, and watching sport on TV (especially rugby and cricket).
