Flying the gospel to the ends of the earth
The developing world has seen no shortage of calamity, conflict, instability and suffering over the past century. Folk just have to turn on the news to see communities torn apart by war, battered by floods or stifled by insufficient medical care. So frequent are these types of news stories, that…

Home is where the heart is in the kingdom of God
As I put my fingers to the keyboard to write this article, I'm still struck by my interview with Pete Cunningham, director of Green Pastures CBS Limited. Pastor Pete, as he is known, insisted that we meet face to face at the Evangelical Alliance's head office in London for the interview; and if we…

The last word: Developing resilience
It has been a wonderful privilege over the years to become close friends with some amazing men and women of God. I have made it a habit to observe their lives and learn as much as I possibly can. I not only study how they go about their work or ministry, but how they conduct themselves behind the…
Christ is King, not me
At the heart of the kingdom of God is the King. For me to learn how to be a citizen of that kingdom, I need to learn how to submit my rule to Him. Submission does not come naturally to me: I like to be in control, I heed my own opinions, and I trust my own judgement. I don't even like the word…

The kingdom of the Father’s love
Perhaps the most basic but clearest description of what the kingdom means comes from pastor and author John Piper on his website Desiring God:
God’s kingdom and our dual citizenship
Jesus Christ's central message was that all people should have a change of heart (repent), for the kingdom of God is at hand. Given that 'kingdom' quite literally means the 'king's domain', this would no doubt have been of concern to the ruling authorities at that time, both Roman and Jewish. Not…

Heavenly citizenship and earthly justice

Opportunity and opposition like never before
You and I live in unique times. Today, I’m convinced that there is a greater spiritual openness than I can remember for decades. Yet at the same time we face opposition. I believe that, right now, God is calling us to act. And that’s why I wrote to many of you recently – to ask you if you could…
Let’s together make Jesus known
Thank you for considering a gift today. With your previous support, we've just launched the Great Commission website to help Christians talk about Jesus. But that's not all we're doing to make Jesus know this year. If we want to see thousands come to faith, we need to think big. And we need to act…

Give the gifts of unity and hope this Christmas
It’s that joyful time of year again, when we celebrate the son of God becoming the son of man. Christmas is upon us, a festive season of joy and gratitude, a time of peace, family and friends, and unity. But this unity isn’t yet reflected across our nations. In fact, we’re in a time of…
Help equip the church to share the gospel
Though 57% of people in England call themselves Christians, just 9% are what we might call "practising Christians". That's fewer than 1 in 10 people who know Jesus and live out their faith in their daily lives. Perhaps more worrying still, 54% of non-Christians who know a Christian have never had a…
