    Can We Trust God's Justice? // Paul Mallard & Sarah Allen // FIEC Leaders' Conference 2023

    Can We Trust God's Justice? // Paul Mallard & Sarah Allen // FIEC Leaders' Conference 2023

    The Bible tells us that God loves justice (Psalm 99:4). But is it intrinsic to his very nature? Can we be sure?

    In this seminar, Paul Mallard, FIEC Director for the West Midlands and chair of the FIEC Theology Team, and Sarah Allen, a pastor's wife in Huddersfield and member of the FIEC Theology Team, explore the topic of God's justice.

    They explain how John Owen changed his mind on the subject and why it has massive theological and pastoral implications for us today.

    Fan the Flame Given to You // Graham Thomson (The Hub 2024)

    How should we live and minister in the world as we wait in expectation for the coming return of Christ?

    The Blessing and Burden of Christian Ministry // Adrian Reynolds (The Hub 2024)

    The Blessing and Burden of Christian Ministry // Adrian Reynolds (The Hub 2024)

    There is an intensity to Christian ministry that we must hold in tension: the cost and the joy; the privilege and the pain; the blessing and the burden.

    Adrian Reynolds (FIEC Head of National Ministries) speaks from Hebrews 12:1-3 on the nobility of Christian ministry and the costs to Christian ministry: two sides that church leaders must hold in tension.

    Optimism for Gospel Growth (Annual Review 2022/23)

    Optimism for Gospel Growth (Annual Review 2022/23)

    There are reasons for optimism when we look at the growth of the gospel in FIEC and its churches over the past year.

    In 2023, we find ourselves in a post-Christian context with a declining institutional church, making Christians in an ever-decreasing minority.

    Yet evangelical churches - that faithfully proclaim Christ, provide a warm welcome, and connect with their communities - are growing in a significant way.

    In the past year, we've seen how FIEC churches, our help for churches, and our staff team are all growing.

Humble-Helpful-Timely

I stumbled onto their YouTube channel and then eventually their podcast. Very humble helpful timely leadership advice. As an American Christian who was a senior pastor for around nine years these men and women of God are sharing great truths and encouragement
