Peppiatt was born in 1965 in London, England. As a teenager she lived in Larchmont, NY, and attended Mamaroneck High School between 1979-1981, and then Malborough College, Wiltshire, between 1981-1983.

Career


From 1987-1990, Peppiatt worked with the homeless at The Passage day centre in London
Peppiatt was a licensed lay minister in the Church of England from 1995-2003. She pastored churches alongside her husband at St Stephen's, East Twickenham, St Mary Magdalene Avondale Church, Harare, Zimbabwe and St Stephen's Netherthorpe, Sheffield. She identifies as an evangelical charismatic. She is now chair of Crossnet Trust, Bristol since Crossnet was established as an independent CIO from 2023. She was a Member of Theological Advisory Group to Evangelical Alliance UK from 2014 – 2019 and Vice-Chair from 2017-2019.
Peppiatt was appointed in 2010 to the position of lecturer in systematic theology at WTC (Westminster Theological Centre), a non-denominational Hub-based theological college with its central office based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. She became dean of studies in 2011 and has been the principal of WTC since 2013. Under Peppiatt’s leadership the college has been reoriented to serve, primarily, the independent church constituency in the UK who have no dedicated theological colleges. She lectures in systematic theology.
Peppiatt's research interests include the Trinity, charismatic theology, discipleship, and 1 Corinthians. She has written a number of articles and books about women in the Bible and the church, and Paul the Apostle and women, paying particular attention to traditionally hierarchal views and the problems that arise from them. Peppiatt contends that a careful reading of 1 Corinthians 11-14 reveals that Paul’s discussion of women is intended to refute the patriarchal views held by male Christians in Corinth. She is regularly engaged as a speaker in both church and academic contexts.
In 2022 Peppiatt taught a BibleProject Classroom on 1 Corinthians and has a close working relationship with them.




Personal life


Peppiatt is married to Nick Crawley, an Anglican minister and creator of Bible for Life. They have four sons, Seth, Harry, Roscoe and Jem.
