Jeremy Hobson from Trinity Church Islington reports on this year’s London Preachers’ Conference:
Faithful preaching is right at the heart of a faithful local church. But those of us who preach need to hear faithful preaching ourselves, and get reliable feedback on the teaching we’re giving. That’s why a group of us, a few years ago, set up the London Preachers’ Conference – because, as local church pastors, we wanted to be taught from God’s word and prayerfully sharpen each other up ‘as iron sharpens iron’.
This year on 20 April, under the umbrella of the London Gospel Partnership, around 35 of us met for this year’s conference. Gathering on Zoom rather than in person, the conference was shorter than it has been in the past, but the emphasis was the same – a practical conference for London-based local pastors from a variety of denominations and church backgrounds, where we could be taught and gain reliable feedback.
