South Carolina Campus Update

We are very excited about the ongoing developments of the new St. Paul's Theological Centre in Charleston, South Carolina.  The Director of SPTC, Andrew Emerton, was able to visit the final evening of their second pilot of SPTC's School of Theology Faithtrack in March.  The course has been hosted at St. Andrew's Church, Mount Pleasant and there have been about 60 students taking part in the evenings.  They are using the set of DVD's that were recorded in Manila in September 2008 and then having worship, small group discussion time and Q&A on each evening.

Apologetics Training Day

On May 9th we held a day conference with the Zacharias Trust at St Paul’s Hammersmith designed to address some of the key questions raised about faith in the modern world. Over 350 people came together to hear Professor Alister McGrath from Kings College London, Michael Ramsden and Amy Orr-Ewing from Zacharias Trust, as well as our own Mike Lloyd .

Most of the objections to God in today’s world are moral rather than intellectual so we looked at some of those – for example, is God violent and how can he allow suffering and evil?
