John Stott: Gone to be with Christ.

Preacher, Writer, Friend JOHN R. W. STOTT CBE (1921-2011)

Time Magazine named him alongside Nelson Mandela and Bill Gates in its “most influential people” list of 2005. He was once described by Billy Graham as the “most respected clergyman in the world today”. And his leadership of the evangelical movement helped move it from a rather narrow-minded fundamentalism after the Second World War, to the fastest growing section of global Christianity it is today. John Stott, the former Rector of All Souls Church, Langham Place, London, and one of the most significant Christian leaders of the 20th century, died on 27th July 2011 aged 90.

The list of movements and institutions he strengthened can be found in the biographical pages at www.langhampartnership.org and further information at the memorial website, www.johnstottmemorial.org.

Below is a short video clip of John Stott speaking at the Keswick Convention in 2007

Encouraging opening weekend at Keswick at Portstewart 2011

The 2011 Keswick at Portstewart started with an encouraging opening weekend.

 

A packed tent on the Sunday evening witnessed around 60 young people commissioned for work with Portstewart CSSM.

 

 

 

Edwin Ewart from the Irish Baptist College preached from 2 Corinthians chapter 3 reminding believers that the Christian and the Christian Church is God’s letter to the world.

With bright sunshine on Monday morning David Johnston minster of Hamilton Road Presbyterian Church Bangor started the bible readings. His subject over the 5 mornings will be taken from Revelation chapters 4 & 5.

'Soul' Youth Version of Christianity Explored

Nate will be leading a seminar on Soul at the  Keswick at Portstewart Convention on Friday 15 July 2011

 

All new Christianity Explored

In May, the all new  Christianity Explored was  launched. What are the main changes and why?

The key decision was to re-edit and shorten the course from ten sessions down to seven.  Research showed that many users with years of experience in running the course are doing this already. This new shorter course will appear less daunting to potential guests, which should mean that more will agree to participate.

Also, any visual product looks dated after eight years.  The Christianity Explored DVD has therefore been completely reshot in an exciting and eye-catching way, although it retains the best script elements from before.  Finally, the DVD and the materials for leaders and guests have been completely rebranded under the crisper, clearer, more attractive design pictured above.

Some aspects of the course, however, remain absolutely the same.  We continue to introduce people to the real Jesus from the pages of Mark’s gospel and continue to explore who Jesus is, why he came and what it means to follow him today.  The end result we trust is a very streamlined and manageable “new” edition.

 On Thursday 14 July Craig  Dyer the Training Director for Christianity Explored will be leading a  seminar on the new version at the 2011  Keswick at Portstewart Convention.

 

Work continues at Keswick at Portstewart site

 

The builder is working really hard to have the renovation of the cloakrooms completed by the end of June.

 

The new toilet facilities   will include the provision of a disabled toilet and a baby changing room.

On Friday the 24 of June the Marquees   will be erected on the site starting the countdown to this year’s event which starts on Saturday 9 of July.

Do please pray for the 2011 Keswick at Portstewart Convention.
