Summary:

John Stott on the past. Mark Greene on the future.

Why did John Stott found LICC 25 years ago? What’s been its impact on the UK and international Church? And importantly, how does LICC view the challenges facing the Church today?

Summary:

One of John Stott's great themes, recorded in 1997 and reissued to celebrate LICC’s Silver Jubilee. In this talk, by LICC's founder, John looks at the authority of the Bible. Exploring how Jesus viewed the writings of the Old Testament Scriptures and explaining the uniqueness of the Apostles, John shows how we need to both submit to and listen to the Bible if we are to follow Christ today. The handout accompanying the talk can be found at www.licc.org.uk/bible

Summary:

Reflecting on a worldwide ministry that led Time magazine to acknowledge him as one of the '100 Most Influential People in the World,' John Stott alerts a church that is in transition to the marks of a church that is living. Becoming a living church is not an impossible goal. John unpacks the Bible's wisdom rigorously with a teacher's skill and applies it faithfully with a pastor's heart, laying down a challenge to build churches which are based on Scripture but ones which are radical and relevant in today’s culture.

Summary:

One of John Stott's great themes, recorded in 1998 and reissued to celebrate LICC’s Silver Jubilee. In this talk, by LICC's founder, John explains that for each of us to be whole as God intended, all of life should fall under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Radical discipleship, thus, has many dimensions: intellectual, moral, vocational, social, political and global. But these are all integrated in our commitment to the person of Christ.

Summary:

This fully revised edition (2006) of John Stott’s classic work continues to provide a biblical basis for Christian ethical involvement in society, looking at global issues of war, inequality and human rights, issues of work, race and lifestyle as well as social issues of gender, sex, abortion and euthanasia. There’s a brand new chapter by John Wyatt on bio-engineering.

Summary:

The Contemporary Christian is John Stott’s definitive and passionate plea to the church. Before we attempt to teach or evangelise, he urges, we must listen to God’s Word and God’s world. Only then will we be able to communicate the authentic gospel effectively.
