Dr. Alistair Brown, President of Northern Seminary, remarked, “I have known David Coffey for over 20 years, worked alongside him and traveled with him. He is a man with a heart for God. He has exceptional communication and leadership gifts, and he is great at taking vision through to reality. He’s a true world leader among evangelicals. You should meet and hear him.”

Description of Lecture Topic

Evangelicals, all one in Christ Jesus. True. No dispute. But not how it seems to most of the world, and when we’re honest it’s not how we feel either. We’re one, but live as if we’re divided.

So is unity ‘mission impossible’ for evangelicals? Dr. David Coffey will address issues inside local churches and the broader evangelical landscape. He’ll highlight fruitful partnerships and warn of dangers that arise when relating to other Christians.

Dr. Coffey will discuss the importance of mending broken bridges, healing relationships, accountability and church discipline, and the urgency of greater unity in mission and evangelism in a broken world
