Eight convictions about the local church
Mark Ashton (1948-2010) was the Pastor of the Round Church in Cambridge. He was one of the most influential evangelical pastor-teachers of his generation.
Mark Ashton was vicar of the Church of the Holy Sepulchure in
Cambridge from 1987 until his death in 2010. He writes dearly,
simply, but above all biblica1Jy, about the priorities for local
church life. Don't be put off by the fact that his ministry was in
a large student church. The principles he elaborates apply to any
church in any context. This book deserves to be read, whether you
are a minister or member of a congregation. You
will not come away disappointed.
*Phil Lo Bao, Evangelicals Now*
Reading this wonderful book has reminded me how many of my
priorities have been significantly shaped by his example, from
sitting under his feet when he first arrived at the Round Church,
and by his teaching. All who read it will be challenged, as I was,
to sharpen their focus and raise their standards for the great
benefit of the church and the glory of God.
*Vaughan Roberts (Rector of St Ebbe's, Oxford and Director of
Proclamation Trust)*
Mark Ashton minded the business God gave him, and I am thankful
beyond words that his pastoral wisdom shines forth in the pages of
this little book. He, being dead, yet speaks, and we do well to
listen.
*D. A. Carson (Emeritus Professor of New Testament, Trinity
Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois)*
