UK in transition: Keep calm and carry on!

The death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, after her remarkable 70-year reign, inevitably causes great uncertainty for the future. How might Britain change under her successor?
She has been a focus for stability and national identity in a fast-changing world, and a voice for the centrality of Christian faith in the public square. None of us knows the full extent of her influence behind the scenes, but many Christians assume that she has been a bulwark against ever-advancing secularism and progressivism. They fear that her death will allow these forces greater sway, and that the very integrity of the United Kingdom may be more difficult to sustain without her.

In May, while the UK pondered the EU referendum campaign, I was privileged
to
attend the European Leadership Forum.
Over 700 evangelical leaders from all over
Europe gathered for six days at a hotel
in
Poland. The object
is
to
serve and equip
national leaders to renew the biblical church
and re-evangelise Europe, through a strategy of
identifying, uniting, mentoring, and resourcing evangelical
leaders. The Forum brings
together experienced leaders from the US and
Europe to serve and equip the next generation.
