Newbold Connect
Faith that travels into everyday life.
A space where the distance between what you believe and how you live starts to close.
Short, cinematic Classes from Newbold College of Higher Education — built around one question: what does faith actually look like on a Tuesday?
Join early accessYOU PROBABLY DON'T NEED MORE THINGS TO BELIEVE
You've heard the sermons. You've done the reading. You carry a faith that matters to you — and you want it to matter in the meeting room, in the conversation you keep avoiding, in the way you rest, lead, spend, decide.
The gap isn't a faith problem. It's a practice problem.
Newbold Connect is being built as a space where that gap starts to close — not through more information, but through reflection, small actions, and the kind of teaching that doesn't leave you at the door of Monday wondering what to do with it.
WHAT A CLASS LOOKS LIKE
Short
Short, structured Episodes — each one designed to fit a commute, a lunch break, or a quiet half-hour. Not a retreat you can't take.
Cinematic
Filmed with care and intention. Not a talking head on a white wall — a visual experience that takes the subject seriously, because we think you do too.
Practice-first
Each Class is built around reflection and action, not just more things to know. Most Episodes include an Action Step — one specific practice to carry into your week.
Scholars and practitioners
Each Class is led by a doctor, researcher, or specialist practitioner — selected for the depth of their thinking and the quality of their practice. The same rigour as a degree programme — without the essay.
What's coming
CLASSES OPENING ON 27 JUNE
Detox Your Life — Dr Dominique Thomsen On simplicity, digital overload, and recovering the margin to live intentionally.
Know Your Value — Morton Patterson On identity, worth, and how faith reshapes the way you see yourself — and lead others.
Modernity, Burnout and the Search for Hope — Marianne Thieme On why the pace of modern life feels unsustainable, and what a grounded, faith-informed life might look like instead.
More Classes launching alongside them.
Newbold College faculty Classes are currently in development — joining the platform in the months that follow.
Who this is for
DOES ANY OF THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
- You believe your faith should shape how you work — but the connection between worship and the rest of the week still feels like something you're supposed to have figured out by now.
- You lead people and you want that leadership to come from somewhere real — not just competence, but character.
- You're a pastor, elder, or ministry team member looking for trusted formation resources — for your own growth, and for the people you serve.
- You're a friend or alumnus of Newbold, and you want to stay close to its scholarship in a format that fits the life you actually have.
- You're simply curious — about faith, about practice, about what it means to live with intention.
If any of that resonates — you're in the right place.
