Christians from 27 countries gathered in Central London on 8–9 September for a conference called ‘Pilgrims and Exiles’, held by Ligonier Ministries. Speakers delivered messages from the New Testament book of 1 Peter, encouraging believers in their calling to live as sojourners in this world and ambassadors for the world to come.
Based near Orlando, Florida, Ligonier is the international discipleship organisation founded by American theologian Dr R.C. Sproul (1939–2017). The September conference played a role in the ministry’s efforts to serve the global church with Biblical and theological teaching and to help Christians stand firm in their faith.
‘This is an exciting event for us,’ said Chris Larson, Ligonier’s President and CEO, ‘not just because of our deep care for the church here in the United Kingdom, but because London is a central rallying point for so many of the ministry partners that we work with in Eastern Europe, Central and Eastern Africa, and the Middle East.’
