The atonement is the crucial doctrine of the faith.  Unless we are right here it matters little, or so it seems to me, what we are like elsewhere

Recently, Rev Andy Longwe, a member of Edinburgh Bible College’s Board of Trustee, preached a powerful and timely sermon on Psalm 46 at College devotions. Since it is deserving of a much wider audience, with Andy’s permission, I commend the message to you. Andy is a Minister of the Free Church of Scotland and recently moved to London to become minister of their London City Presbyterian Church congregation.

EBC Principal, Pastor John Brand, writes, “This morning I had the great joy and privilege of leading the first in a series of seminars on preaching for this group of men who hail from the north of Scotland, the south of England and several places in between. What a delight!” If you would be interested in joining this monthly online seminar, let us know.

At the quarterly meeting of our Board of Directors, today, followed by the AGM, we were delighted to welcome a new Board member, Dr Adele Pilkington.

Adele is a Consultant Occupational Physician who has worked across the UK, including mission and humanitarian aid organisations. For 17 years she was Executive Editor of the remote learning MSc programme for Occupational Medicine at Manchester University. Her part-time theology studies reflected mission interest and research into mental health and Christian identity. She is a voluntary drugs educator for Hope UK and pro-life groups, part of the PRIME tutor network, anti-trafficking groups and a Board of Reference member for the Scottish Council of Human Bioethics.

We are so grateful to Adele and all of our Board members who give of their time and experience so freely to support and advance the work of the College. You can find out who is on the Board here.
