From his home base at All Souls in London, Stott reached out to embrace a wide number of strategic Christian causes, including Scripture Union, the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students (of which InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA is a member movement) and the Evangelical Alliance (with its TEAR Fund) among others. In the Church of England he made signal contributions at the 1967 and 1977 National Evangelical Anglican Congresses. These years also saw his dramatic confrontation with Martyn Lloyd-Jones over the place of evangelicals in the Church of England. His leadership was crucial as well to the success of the International Congresses on World Evangelization at Lausanne (1974) and Manila (1989), which have continued to have major influence on the church to this day. His global influence has been felt further through the organizations he established - the Langham Trust, the London Institute for Contemporary Christianity and the Evangelical Literature Trust. During this time he has published over forty books that have sold over eight million copies worldwide, as well as serving as editor for the series of expositions appreciated around the world as The Bible Speaks Today. All this and more has led prominent churchman David Edwards to consider John Stott to be, apart from William Temple (who died as Archbishop of Canterbury in 1944), "the most influential clergyman in the Church of England during the twentieth century." In this book is found the history of the maturing of the evangelical movement worldwide and the story of one of its most pivotal and inspirational leaders. --From publisher's description

Timothy Dudley-Smith presents a collection of thirty contemporary hymns specifically crafted for significant events in the Christian calendar. These hymns aim to enrich worship experiences throughout the year, reflecting both traditional themes and modern expressions of faith.

One of the finest and most influential hymn-writers of our age, Timothy Dudley-Smith has published around 400 hymn texts. In this fascinating book, the author explores not only the writing of hymns but many other aspects including the study and singing of them. It is not a history, a text book, or an academic treatise, but the personal reflections of an experienced practitioner who has been speaking and writing on this subject, on both sides of the Atlantic, for morethan fifty years. His armchair reflections draw freely on the writings of others, and in a discursive, almost conversational, style.
