14 people who told us they are not part of any church, prayed the salvation response prayer when I spoke at Beulah Family Church, Thornton Heath this morning. And one other, also not church, didn’t pray the prayer but did say they’d “like to know more”. This church was planted by the famous Victorian Baptist pastor C H Spurgeon, who lived nearby, and is now led by John & Liz Clevely, who I bumped into earlier this year on a flight to Israel, where they regularly conduct tours. Beulah is part of a global movement called Regions Beyond, which is led by Steve Oliver, who is based at Beulah and who was there with his wife Heather. Steve told me that he’s going to be part of a church plant into Central London in 2018. Exciting news! I’m now heading to my final Carol Service of 2017, speaking at Hope Church, Sevenoaks.
