Jim Packer – a personal memoir: from Puritanism to Winnie-the-Pooh
Tony Baker reflects on several decades of friendship with J.I. Packer
The first time I heard Dr Jim Packer must have been at midweek talks he gave to the CU in Oxford (OICCU) in the 1950s.
Keith Weston, 1926-2013
Canon Keith Weston, who exercised one of the most influential ministries of his generation amongst students, died on February 5 at the age of 86.
He was Rector of St. Ebbe’s, Oxford, from 1964-85, where his preaching and pastoral ministry proclaimed and showed the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. His expository Bible preaching, carefully applied, was an outstanding example of such ministries gradually developing in university cities through the example and influence of John Stott. Keith’s preaching, backed by warm Rectory hospitality from Keith and his wife Margaret, touched and changed many lives.
