James Catford is the founding Chair of CCPL. James had a career in commercial publishing with Hachette and HarperCollins in London before inaugurating and chairing Theos, the leading UK think tank on religion and the public square. More recently he has been chair of Renovaré founded by Richard Foster, Dallas Willard, and others, and of SPCK the third oldest publisher in Britain. A frequent visitor to the United States, he currently serves as chair of Cultura at the Martin Institute at Westmont College and as a consultant to the American Bible Society where he supports Christians in leadership around the world. James lives in London and is married to Sue, a former journalist and TV anchor.

I enjoy talking to fellows about… a deeper life with God, spiritual formation, leading change, and commercial book publishing.
