If you’ve heard of Bethel, Redding, California then chances are that you associate them first with their music - a lot of churches sing worship songs composed and produced by Bethel or associated organisations like Jesus Culture.

The CofE: Time for evangelicals to leave?

The CofE: Time for evangelicals to leave?

On Friday 3 October, the Church of England announced that the Bishop of London, Sarah Mullally would succeed Justin Welby as Archbishop of Canterbury.

There has been a substantial response from all quarters - not surprising given how big the news is. I’ve seen some responses along the lines of arguing that the new appointment offers the best of a poor set of options, and some bemoaning the terrible disaster that they consider this to be. Those responses from within the CofE have a uniting theme: evangelicals can and must stay and fight in the Church; they must not desert their flocks and must continue to care for them.

We were laughed at for this and accused of relying on a 'slippery slope argument.' 'Don’t be silly', we were told. 'This is just about giving the right to a good death to those who wish to take it up.'

Dear Sir,

I think it’s a good thing that there’s an ongoing conversation about church planting into our unreached areas via your letters page. I know that, from time to time, en puts the spotlight on church planting and on gospel work in tough areas. Maybe another spotlight on the great work happening in needy areas would be timely.
