Rarely does a person transcend generations and leave long-lasting impressions through vocation. Bishop Geoffrey’s voice still resonates today through his passion for the scriptures, with Jesus being his eschaton. He was not loud and did not tower over his congregation, but was part of them – gently, quietly, and humbly. Like his master, he walked amongst them.

The purpose of this video was to document a previously untold story of a young boy – then priest and bishop – but more importantly, a teacher, scholar, spiritual guide, and unfamiliar disciple. This is a story told by Geoff and those who knew him well. For that we owe much to Geoff, for being courageous and rowing against the tide during difficult times.

It was fascinating to see the vision Geoff had … it was pioneering a new way of thinking most Bishops at the time did not have an awareness of.
Bishop Emeritus Peter Ingham

The work Geoff did to help the Church understand was profound. Being a member of the ‘courageous people’ group in Rome during Vatican II was life-changing for Geoff. When the group returned to Australia from overseas, they found themselves rowing against the tide.
