Profile
Rev’d Zoë Browne is a sessional lecturer in Biblical Studies, specialising in Old Testament and Biblical Languages (Hebrew).
Zoë’s passion for languages began at high school, before pursuing her teaching qualifications in French and History. She spent several years teaching Senior French, History and Religion until returning to further study, completing her Bachelor of Theology (with Distinction) and ordination training at St Francis College. Here, Zoë excelled in Hebrew language studies under the guidance of Major Dr Marie-Louise Craig. She has recently completed her research dissertation for her Master of Theology and was awarded a Postgraduate University Medal. Her dissertation examined the use of performance criticism to analyse the Hebrew prophetic literature.
Throughout training and after ordination, Zoë has served as Chaplain to Anglican schools in both Brisbane and Toowoomba. With fifteen years’ experience in both education and ministry, Zoë has a passion for faith formation of people from regional and remote areas. She has recently moved to Gladstone (Central Queensland) with her husband, David (also an Anglican priest), and two young sons, after spending nearly six years serving rural communities in both parish ministry and locum teaching roles. She is serving alongside David as joint Priests-In-Charge of Gladstone Anglican.
