Trevor Dennis
Trevor J. Dennis joined the staff of Chester Cathedral in 1994, where he was Vice Dean and Canon Chancellor until his retirement in 2010. For nearly 12 years before that he was tutor in Old Testament Studies at Salisbury and Wells Theological College.
During his time at Salisbury he wrote two books on Old Testament narratives, Lo and Behold! (1991), and Sarah Laughed (1994), and these were later followed by two volumes exploring Old Testament stories of encounter with God, Looking God in the Eye (1998), and Face to Face with God (1999).
He is well known to readers of the Bible Reading Fellowship’s Guidelines series of Bible notes for his contributions on Old Testament books. Before going to Salisbury he was a chaplain at Eton College, and there he began preaching occasionally through storytelling, a practice he has continued ever since. He is married to Caroline, and they have four children and one grandson.
