In-Person - The John Stott London Lecture 2025 - Creation care: mission or mission drift?
@LICC St Peter's Vere Street London W1
Kuki Rokhum challenges the global church to integrate creation care into its missional theology and practice – without compromising the centrality of Christ.   
As the climate crisis deepens, creation care is racing up the UK church’s agenda. As just one example, A Rocha’s EcoChurch programme now has over 8,500 registered churches with more than 4,100 EcoChurch awards achieved, showing depth as well as breadth of engagement. Does this demonstrate the recovery of a biblical priority which the church had lost? Or is it evidence that the church has drifted away from its primary call to evangelism and adopted a contemporary secular agenda? 
If, as surveys suggest, many young people’s greatest fear is the climate crisis and the future of life on earth, should we proclaim a gospel of rescue and escape from this earth – or is demonstrating hope in Christ for the planet’s future our greatest apologetic opportunity?

Online - The quiet revival – praying for church growth
@
EVERY REVIVAL IN HISTORY HAS been birthed in and fuelled by prayer. As the ‘quiet revival’ gathers pace, this webinar, developed by Thy Kingdom Come with the College of Archbishops’ Evangelists, will draw upon extensive research into the link between prayer and church growth. It will examine how your church can best pray into this moment, discerning God’s plan for your parish and praying intentionally, specifically and effectively for your church to grow.
The Revd Dr Matthew Porter, Bishop of Bolton, Kemi Bamgbose, Project Lead for Thy Kingdom Come, Revd Sue Cooke, a member of the College of Archbishops’ Evangelists.
There will also be opportunity to learn from a series of case studies of strategic prayer for growth presented by churches of varying traditions, drawn together by the Thy Kingdom Come team, and to share your church’s experiences and put questions, facilitated by Revd David Senior who is hosting the webinar.

In-Person - The Because Approach, Innovating Church for all - London
@Bayes Business School, 33 Finsbury Square, London
A launch event based on The Because Approach, a book by Andrew Baughen, Chaplain and Honorary Visiting Fellow at Bayes Business School.
Why the because approach? Because if a church is going to be more than a social club, every person needs to know the ‘because’ behind everything they do: Why do we do this? Why don’t we do that? Why do we do it this way? The Because Approach is a step-by-step resource that mission-focused organisations can use to develop biblical, contextual and intentional plans. The book was first published 20 years ago and has now been completely updated with online frameworks and user guides.

In-Person - Microchurch Conference - Florida
@Tampa, FL, USA
The primary paradigm of church and church planting in the New Testament, throughout history, and globally has looked like intentional communities surrendered to the leadership of Jesus proclaiming and demonstrating the Kingdom of God house to house, table to table, and in simple places like street corners, parks, and alleyways.  
Microchurches are not just a strategic innovation to meet the challenges of an increasingly non-christian and missionary context, but the rediscovery of something old and wired into us as the priesthood of all believers, hungry for deep fellowship with other disciples and a place in God’s mission. 
Whether you’re curious about microchurches, leading a microchurch, multiplying a network, or dreaming of how your existing church can pivot to or incorporate micro, join with dozens of other practitioners and tribes for shared learning and encouragement at the Microchurch Conference.
