Some positive signs for Evangelicalism in the UK
If Spring Harvest is a barometer of Evangelical opinion, then Evangelicalism, in the UK, is changing – in some ways for the better, it seems. Read the whole article here. I cannot really comment further as I've never been to SH.

...and you call yourself a Christian.
Tut tut ;)
Yea, I know, practically pagan. I'll have to give it a try sometime. I suppose you go every time, don't you, you subculturised drone, you.
I was at SH in Skegness and I agree that this year seemed to have a maturity that has been lacking in the past. Of course, our highlight was the appearance of Tom Wright in the big top doing a brilliant exposition of Jesus' Nazareth sermon in Luke 4, taking in the themes of the Kingfom and Jubilee - subjects not often aired at SH!
Oooo Wright! One day we will have to make it. Tell me, do people all stay in tents? (You answer at this point will determine whether I go or not!)
Actually I becmae a Christian at SH in 1996 but haven't been since 1999.
It was way more happy clappy back then with a heavy revivalist slant and all the usual charismatic capers which that entails.
It's good the hear that SH seems to have moved on a bit.
