I’m so pleased to welcome the versatile and prolific writer, Dave Hopwood, to the Sorted Digital talent pool. Dave is the author of over 70 books including The Bloke’s Bible, The Shed, Sons of Thunder, Raging Grace and Diary of a Wimpy Christian. His writing is warm, intuitive, engaging and accessible.
Full disclosure: Here at house of Fraser, we are huge Dave Hopwood fans and we’re feeling pretty giddy about this latest development. Sorted Digital is all about publishing quality writing which informs and blesses the reader, while gently pointing them towards the God of hope. It’s good to have Dave on board to help out with that.
Hubs and I sometimes enjoy an hour or so when we just sit together in the same space, quietly reading. It’s a special time. Many of Dave’s books have featured in these sessions including some of those mentioned above. However, the silence would often be broken by some laugh out loud moments!
Dave is very familiar with Sorted, having written for the print magazine from 2019 to 2021. He enthused: “It’s a privilege and a pleasure to be writing again for Sorted, and it’s so good to have Sorted Digital online magazine as a means of encouraging and inspiring our faith.”
Dave loves communicating the Bible using contemporary media, humour and stories. He is author of a series of books retelling the Bible. He passionately believes that the Bible was and is aimed at ordinary people, and that it is earthy, funny and incisive in the way it tells of God’s interaction with the world. These days he spends much of his time retelling the Bible using anything that seems useful, TV, movies, internet, adverts, news stories etc. He speaks at various places and regularly publishes ideas and material via his website www.davehopwood.com
