Will we ever learn from the past? Are there any lingering signs in our community of faith which show that we continue to struggle to grow and mature in Christ? We asked some church leaders, two Newbold lecturers, and a Newbold student to share their perspective on ‘lessons learnt’. Eglan Brooks (President, British Union Conference)
As a Church, we need to learn lessons from the Waco tragedy. We need to provide a safe environment for our members and the people who interact with us. As a result…Source: https://adventist.uk/news/article/go/2023-04-28/waco-have-we-learnt-the-lessons/
