Mark Meynell is a pastor, writer and all-round culture-vulture.
He has worked for many years in cross-cultural ministry, training up leaders and teachers. This all started in Uganda and then from a base in London at All Souls Langham Place. He has been working in various capacities for Langham Partnership since 2002, most recently as Director (Europe & Caribbean) for Langham Preaching. But at the start of 2025, he went freelance to concentrate on writing and other projects.
He is an inveterate ‘air’ conductor of choirs and orchestras, keen but limited bass player and pianist, ravenous reader, cinephile and gallery visitor. If its arty, he’s into it basically.
