Dear Evangelical Times My own views on the proposal for a UK version of The Gospel Coalition are on the record here. I was disappointed at the time that those proposing the new institution made it clear that they weren’t really interested in feedback or discussion from those who had reservations and concerns.

Responding to the full argument of the Evangelical Times article on reformed charismatics
I’ve recently engaged with an article from Evangelical Times where the author claimed that he needed to escape from the so called Calvinistic charismatics..

The future of Christian magazines
It was something that you used to eagerly look forward to, the day when the latest editions of Evangelicals Now and Christianity Magazine were available in your local Christian bookshop.
