Canopy 2024 draws Scottish Baptists

Canopy 2024 event

Over 400 people attended Canopy 2024, an event for Scottish Baptists in Larbert. The event centred around the theme of everyday discipleship, inspired by Romans 12:1-2.

It featured a range of speakers including Solas Director Andy Bannister, Jenny Walley, Spiritual Director of Novo Mission, and Ken Benjamin, Director of Church Relationships at the London Institute for Contemporary Christianity (LICC).

Those present enjoyed interviews with other guest contributors, worship and positive stories from local churches as well as teaching from keynote speakers Hannah Montgomery of Lighthouse Central Church and Thomas Dean from Stenhouse Baptist Church, specifically on everyday discipleship.

Andy Bannister, who led a seminar based on his book ‘How to Talk About Jesus Without Looking Like an Idiot,’ which equipped attendees with advice on how to approach conversations about Jesus, said that Solas ‘hugely enjoyed’ being part of Canopy.

He said: ‘We’ve taught this material in churches all across the UK and been thrilled to hear how it’s helped Christians have conversations about their faith with their friends and neighbours. It was brilliant to be at Canopy and to see so many packed into the room for the session.’
