Hello.  

Welcome to the College of Preachers' website.  If this is your first visit, you might like to read all about us, or start with our latest news.



Our Jubilee Year. 

2010 marks a special occasion for us - our 50th birthday!  Our Jubilee programme was launched at Wesley's Chapel on Monday January 18th, when we:

reported back on the results of research we've commissioned into attitudes to preaching today;

announced plans for the 2010 ‘Young Preacher of the Year’ competition that we're organizing together with Premier Christian Radio; and

launched our ‘Jubilee Commitment’ to the future of preaching, presenting the names of those preachers who'd already agreed to support it.


Our Jubilee Commitment. 

Here's the text we're inviting as many preachers as possible to sign up to:

"I commit myself to forward looking preaching, engaging faithfully with the Bible, directly with the congregation and prophetically with the world, to proclaim Jesus as Lord."

You can sign up to this commitment on-line by clicking here.  Alternatively, it is now available as a card. Simply download our order form and tick the box marked ‘Commitment to good preaching cards’.



Out and about. 

We’re not the kind of ‘College’ that has its own building.  We’re always on the road, running seminars or setting up display stands around the country.  Over the next few months we’re attending events at locations in Blackburn, Bristol, Coventry, Ely, Esher (Surrey), Rochester and Telford.

And before any of that, we have our 'Breaking News' conference at The Hayes in Swanwick (Derbyshire, pictured).

If one of these locations is near you, why not look up the details in our diary and come and meet us there?

A special invitation from Paul Johns, Director
