The Rev. John L. Bell is an ordained minister of the Church of Scotland and a member of the Iona Community. After a period in the Netherlands and two posts in church youth work, he became employed full time in the areas of music and worship with the Wild Goose Resource Group. He is a past convenor of the Church of Scotland’s Panel on Worship and presently convenes the Committee revising the Church Hymnary. John has produced (some in collaboration with Graham Maule), many collections of original hymns and songs and two collections of songs of the World Church, as well as other worship resources. These are published by the Iona Community in Scotland and by G.I.A. Publications in North America. He is an occasional broadcaster, lectures in theological colleges in Britain and U.S., but is primarily concerned with the renewal of congregational worship at grass roots level.
