REFORMING THE DIOCESE FROM WITHIN
By John Richardson
What can you do if you are a small group of evangelicals in a diocese where it seems that nothing
organized by the institution ever reflects a sound theological agenda or is likely to feed the mass of
God’s people?
That was the question raised almost thirteen years ago at a committee meeting of the Chelmsford
Diocesan Evangelical Association, following a diocesan conference for laypeople. By universal agreement it had been fantastically well-organized but lacked real ‘substance’.
After listening to the discussion for several minutes, I was moved to ask, “Why don’t we lay on something ourselves?” And that was how the Chelmsford Anglican Bible Conference was born.
