Welcome to my website which is an evolving space for all things creative borne out of a desire to see people connected to passion and purpose and the good things that bring our world of wonder together.

Having been involved in pastoral ministry for over 30 years and engaged in entrepreneurship for over 20 years - I love the idea of creating; of making things that enrich life and celebrate it with colour. So here you will find blogs, podcasts, reviews and thoughts - plus a bit of emerging art for good measure. 
You can find more about my pastoral work and the church I lead here www.hopechurchnottingham.org. I tweet @stephenhackney and you can find me on Facebook @stephenjhackney

I hope you enjoy the site!

Don’t ask yourself what the world needs, ask yourself what makes you come alive inside and go and do that because what the world needs is for you to come alive inside.”
