Philip James John Plyming (born 1974) is a British Anglican priest. Since May 2017, he has been the Warden of Cranmer Hall, Durham, an Open Evangelical Church of England theological college. Previously, from 2006 to 2017, he was the Vicar of Holy Trinity Church, Claygate in the Diocese of Guildford.

Plyming was born in 1974. As a child, he attended an Anglo-Catholic church but "came to a personal faith in Christ" while he was at university. He studied at Robinson College, Cambridge, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in 1996, and then worked as a linguist. In 1998, he entered Cranmer Hall, Durham, an Open Evangelical Anglican theological college, to train for ordained ministry. During this time, he also studied theology at St John's College, Durham, graduating with a first class BA degree in 2000.

Plyming later undertook postgraduate research at the University of Edinburgh, and he completed his Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in 2008. His doctoral thesis was titled "Transforming news: a theoretical and critical analysis of contemporary Christian news handling in the light of the Apostle Paul's Corinthian hardship narratives".
