Great opportunity for Anglican evangelicals

The Revd. Dr. David Peterson, Principal of Oak Hill Theological College in north London, reflects on his work in the Church of England two years after coming from Australia.

'Evangelicals should not despair of the Church of England - but see the present time as one of great opportunity', David Peterson said to EN as he approached the second anniversary of his move from Moore College, Sydney.

Oak Hill trains Anglicans for ministry but also has a significant number of Free Church and international students. Fifty-three year-old Dr. Peterson spoke of the C of E and his impressions of British evangelicalism generally.
