Leader of the Evangelical Alliance (EA) Scotland, Fred Drummond, is leaving his role after nearly two decades. In a piece about his leadership, he reflected on his time at EA.
Drummond said it was odd to leave his local church nearly 20 years ago to join Evangelical Alliance Scotland, but that he can now “see the Lord’s plan and faithfulness".
He also praised the staff at EA: “The staff team at Evangelical Alliance have been fantastic to work with. They have all been on a journey with Jesus, some fairly new to faith, others further on in their walk. Staff represent various denominations and don’t all agree on every point of theology, but they are all striving to serve Jesus together. I am always struck by the genuine desire of the staff to serve their Lord, to do the best they can and see transformation happen.”
He said: “Christian leadership has had a bad time over the last few years, but there are amazing leaders serving Jesus across the UK." He also said it has been useful to remember that “God is the God of eternity” and to “keep an eternal perspective on things."
Drummond will now move back into his local church.
