Matters of Life and Death

“I recently read John Wyatt's masterful book 'Matters of Life and Death: Human dilemmas in the light of the Christian faith' (IVP) and was struck not only but his profound professional insights, but also by his clear Biblical worldview and pastoral warmth. I truly believe that he is uniquely qualified to equip the body of Christ to engage with society on these crucial issues.

I am delighted that John has agreed to come and address us in person and that we can extend the invitation to the wider church in Nottingham and beyond.”

- Pastor Nick Sharp
