2021 marked the centenary of the birth of John Stott in central London. He holds a unique place in 20th Century Church history, both in Britain and across the globe.
Of the many events and projects organised to commemorate his work, Langham UK & Ireland sponsored this podcast, releasing an episode every fortnight.
In each episode, I met people who has been impacted by John Stott‘s legacy (see this page for more background). His thought, life and example represent many challenges to our own generation.
Then in 2024, the whole series was remastered and streamlined to create a valuable resource for future generations of believers.
Produced by Langham Partnership UK and Ireland.
