The fourth conference of 'Essentially Evangelical' met at High Leigh in mid-June, attended by a wide range of evangelicals. Here is a summary of the vision-setting address given by David Jackman, Director of the Cornhill Training Course, at the end of the consultation.
'Essentially Evangelical' was born in 1997, at a conference in Bawtry Hall, which drew together a number of leaders across the spectrum.
That conference agreed a doctrinal and mission statement committed 'to bring the Bible back to the churches and the churches back to the Bible'. 'What has been accomplished so far?' and 'Where we are going in the future?' have been questions occupying our minds.
