How does the church operate in an increasingly hostile culture which no longer assumes Christianity is essentially good?
That was the topic when around 75 people, mostly church leaders and theological students from across the whole of the UK and from widely different denominational groups came together in March for the biennial Affinity Theological Study Conference.
The unique format of this conference is that papers are sent in advance and then presented in summary form so time at the event can be mainly used discussing and debating the ideas.
