Two British sites that you may enjoy

by Jonathan on April 15, 2011

I heard someone say (and I forget who it was) that listening to British pastors and scholars is very helpful for us Americans because they have had to live as a minority in their country for a lot longer than we have. The culture in which they live is noticeably less “Christian” and for that reason they have to explain the foundational concepts of the Christian faith in a less jargon-filled manner and with fewer assumptions about what their audience understands.

After I heard that commentary I forgot about it, but providentially I’ve run in to two great websites that are helpful and happen to be British. I don’t vouch for all content on these sites, but everything I’ve listened to has been immensely helpful for my faith and ministry.

The Theology Network has provided great resources on church history and theology. I’ve listened to many lectures from this site. I especially like those of Mike Reeves.

bethinking.org is not as familiar to me, but I’ve also been blessed by several lectures I’ve listened to from them on culture. Incidentally, they are sister websites from the same organization.
