Second Event with the WEA on the State of Evangelicalism

KLC is co-hosting a series of discussions with the World Evangelical Alliance on the question, “What is evangelicalism?” The first discussion revolved around the challenges of defining “evangelicalism” in the current context. In this instalment of the series, our panellists engage with the question, “Should we distinguish evangelicalism as it is theologically defined from any other forms of evangelicalism abroad in the world today?”

There is no question that discomfort with the name “evangelical” and confusion about its meaning stems largely from the strong media attention given to the politicisation of evangelicalism in America. In this video, representatives of the global movement discuss whether world evangelicalism should be doing a better job of reclaiming the name evangelical for the theologically oriented world movement?
