REVEREND TOM MADDERS

SENIOR MINISTER

Rev Tom Madders has been our Senior Minister since January 2022.

Born and bred in Essex, Tom grew up in a Christian family but didn’t come to faith until his early twenties.

Having graduated from St. Mary’s University with a BA in English Literature, Tom worked as a London Market Insurance Broker for 13 years, a job he thoroughly enjoyed. As he grew in his faith, he became aware that God was calling him into full-time ministry.

He left his job in the City in 2016 to study for a degree in Theology at Spurgeon's College, South London, while serving as Minister in Training at Billericay Baptist Church.  He graduated three years later with First Class Honours and served as Associate Minister at Billericay until December 2021, when he felt called to Norwich Central. 

When not at church, Tom enjoys spending time with his wife and son, watching and playing a variety of sports, and exploring the local area. He is also partial to a curry and a good single malt!
