A well-known conservative evangelical minister has resigned.

The resignation of Paul Williams, who was vicar of Christ Church, Fulwood, in Sheffield, came after a ‘visitation’ commissioned by two bishops at the invitation of the Church Council and Mr Williams himself.

The two bishops – the conservative evangelical Bishop of Maidstone, Rod Thomas, and Bishop of Sheffield, Pete Wilcox – have indicated their support for the decision to resign.
