"and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near." -- Hebrews 10:24-25 (NASB)

Gordon Robertson (Church elder)
"I have lived in Leeds since I was 1 year old! I was brought up to go to church. When I went to university (Durham, to do Maths) I thought I was a Christian, and so went along to some Christian meetings. Getting to know real Christians showed me that my religion was not the same as a relationship with God. I asked Christ to change me, and discovered that knowing God was completely different from trying to be a Christian. I returned to Leeds and joined City Evangelical Church, which I attended for over 30 years. I now work for Leeds City Council looking after traffic lights throughout the city. My wife, Clare, runs our Christian bookshop in Headingley, and teaches an Explorer class in the church."
People's stories
We plan to interview some of the members of the church - asking them about how they became a Christian, and their lives as Christians. Watch this space!
This relevant, interesting and challenging question will be addressed by Professor Andy McIntosh at our evening conference on Saturday 5 June.
Further details will appear here shortly
