In June this year Sandra Byatt took up the position of Commissioning Editor for Christian Life and Contemporary Issues with the well-known Christian publisher, IVP. EN interviewed her about her faith and the important role she now fills.

EN: How did you get the job at IVP?

SB: The route had God's controlling hand evident at every turn.

I hadn't actually seen the advertisement for the job myself, but my good friend from Christian Book Promotions (www.christianbookpromotions.org.uk/), Trevor Hames, called me and encouraged me to apply for the role. Ten years ago I had completed some work experience at IVP when I was studying at Leicester University, so I knew about the ministry there.
