TGCUK idea gains momentum

Affinity is encouraging the UK church to unite behind the idea

The idea of a UK ‘Gospel Coalition’ is continuing to receive varying degrees of support.

At the start of April, evangelical umbrella group Affinity announced it was entering discussions to form such a new body – and that it might even ‘replace’ their own organisation (see May issue of en).

Phil Swan, from the Evangelical Movement of Wales (EMW) said it is ‘fairly supportive’, citing the need to develop wider unity among evangelicals in the UK: ‘As a movement we’re concerned about potential fragmentation in evangelicalism in the UK currently. So we would do anything positively that would provide an opportunity potentially for wider evangelical fellowship. It depends who ultimately would have control; that will be the test of this.’
