Class and ministry today

John Funnell

Oak Hill College has hosted its annual School of Theology, focusing on “Class and Ministry in the UK today”.

The day opened with a plenary from Matthew Sleeman, who introduced key questions. Delegates also heard from Jason Roach, Kevin Croft and Maegen Webb of London City Mission, who reflected on the realities of class in local church life.

The final plenary address, from Kirsten Birkett, considered how changing social and cultural trends may shape conversations about class in the years ahead.
