INSIDE THIS ISSUE

6-9 In the third part of our 125th anniversary celebrations, we look back 80 years and preview this year’s regional celebrations.

1O-13 For Belmont Church, in Exeter, evangelism is not just about ‘conversion’ but building life-long relationships. Young Families Team Leader, Rachel Morris, tells Ignite how it starts with antenatal classes.

14-17 Making Jesus Known Today and Tomorrow: Spreading the Gospel in
Twenty-first Century Britain. If you haven’t yet asked for your copy, read Counties Evangelist, Matt Rich’s, edited excerpt from the book: Sharing the Good News Online.

18-21 Counties Evangelist, Paul Willmott, works alongside a number of local churches, in the West Midlands, where he creates links with primary schools. Rebecca Russell is a part-time schools’ worker, who frequently works with Paul. She shares what evangelism looks like for her church.

22-23 Counties Evangelist, Mark Bingham, is passionate about other Christians seeing that “Evangelism is a way of life, rather than an activity”.

24-27 ‘Church in the Community Wollaston’, opened in 2021. It tried lots of community engagement opportunities, but it was only when the church slowed down and put the Gospel first, that the church began to grow. Counties Planter, Jordan Armstrong, tells Ignite how it happened.

28-29 Counties Evangelist, Jonathan Brain and his wife Heather continue the story of their new house church.

3O-33 Chris Sinkinson is an author and associate pastor at Lansdowne Church in Bournemouth. He looks at how the local church might tackle the ‘big questions’ as part of its evangelistic strategy.
