The renowned Anglican biblical scholar Charlie Moule, as he was popularly known, came from an eminent church and missionary family. He obtained a first at Cambridge and trained for ordination at Ridley Hall where his grandfather was once Principal and where he himself became Vice-Principal at the age of 28. His Cambridge career culminated in his appointment as Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity, a post he held for 25 years, where he influenced a generation of Anglican leaders including Rowan Williams (at whose wedding he officiated), John Sentamu and the late Graham Stanton, his successor as Lady Margaret Professor. Charlie Moule died in 2007. He wrote a number of definitive texts in New Testament studies, but here is not the scholarly professor, but the humble and prayerful man (nicknamed 'Holy Mouley') reflecting widely on Christian practice and belief, biblical questions and contemporary challenges. The text of Rowan Williams' memorial service address is included and his nephew Patrick Moule, provides a preface.

Be careful what you write, someone may publish it one day! This facetious warning comes to mind with regard to some of the pieces in this book, which is a pity because C.F.D.Moule was and still is, a highly regarded biblical scholar, and an affectionately remembered teacher and colleague. Nevertheless it is difficult to accept some of this material without regretting its re-publication. The positives do outweigh the negatives, however. The first part of the book is a valuable introduction to the man and his theology. In the second half we are given material under headings such as ‘Biblical Theology’ and ‘Christian Practice and Belief.’ There is something for many if not all, here.
