Hot Church in Bristol
A new kind of church, which brings together quality production with authenticity and real community involvement is emerging in historic Bristol, England.
Mal Fletcher recently spoke at Elim@Bristol (e@B) City Church and found a church that is both committed to relevance and to being 'prophetic' in dealing with the future shape of its city.
Bristol is a city of over half a million people, and is growing rapidly right now, with major building developments across the city.
One of the city's two universities has 25,000 students, and the nearby airport is growing fast.
The senior pastor of e@b, Peter Davies, took a struggling traditional church seven years ago and has seen it transformed into an emerging model of 'new church', in every sense of the word.
Peter said, in response to Mal's teaching: 'That was probably the greatest message I've ever heard about Joseph and his influence. Mal has spoken prophetically into the life of our church.'
After his visit, Mal said: 'e@b is a name you're going to hear about in future. It is passionate about changing the culture of its city and already is attracting some high-ranking and influential people -- because of its commitment to the community.'
'If you're in historic Bristol, check it out. You won't be disappointed.'

I'm in the British Army and a very strong practicing Christian. Everything inside me is screaming ... we are now having to have multi-faith prayer rooms. Where will it end?

Mal, thankyou for provoking me to think more. Your ministry is giving people a real wake up call, provoking Christians to seriously think about how we ought to be responding to issues like celebrity.
