Catholic Education Office Archdiocese of Canberra and Goulburn presents An Evening with Fr Timothy Radcliffe OP. Fr Timothy Radcliffe OP was Master of the Order of Preachers from 1992 to 2001. A member of the community at Blackfriars, Oxford, he is the author of several very popular books and an internationally reputed speaker and retreat-giver. In 2003, Oxford awarded Radcliffe an honorary Doctor of Divinity. The Chancellor, the Right Honorable Christopher Patten, ended the award citation with the following words: I present a man distinguished both for eloquence and for wit, a master theologian who has never disregarded ordinary people, a practical man who believes that religion and the teachings of theology must be constantly applied to the conduct of public life. Radcliffe received the 2007 Michael Ramsey Prize for theological writing for his book What Is the Point of Being A Christian? Radcliffe is also patron of Positive Faith, the main ministry of Catholic AIDS Prevention and Support, sits on the Council on Christian Approaches to Defence and Disarmament, and is a patron of Embrace the Middle East
