A New Mission Era                                                              Stephen Hale                                                 5th August, 2020      
Is this a significant turning point or just a road hump in mission history?                                                                                                         

It has been suggested that there have been Four Eras of Christian History:

  • 500 years up unto the fall of Rome (empire becomes Christian)
  • 500 years up to the Great Schism (split between eastern and western church)
  • 500 years up to the Great Reformation (recovery of Scripture and the gospel of grace, this Reformation was spread via the embrace of the printing press, so people had access to God’s word in their native tongue)
  • 500 years up until today (Has been described era of Christendom – church spread via empire and mission to four corners of globe)

EFAC. GAFCON. What’s the Difference? Are Both Necessary?

Written by: Chris Appleby

By Revd Richard Crocker, General Secretary, EFAC Global

EFAC (The Evangelical Fellowship in the Anglican Communion) had an exhibit stand at the recent GAFCON gathering in Jerusalem, a notable conference of Anglican leaders from around the world. Fifty countries were represented, including 316 Bishops and Archbishops, demonstrating the widespread impact of this biblically orthodox movement.

Many of the GAFCON conference delegates stopped by the EFAC exhibit and, as reported earlier on the Global EFAC website, the response was overwhelmingly positive. We are now in regular contact with Anglican leaders from 31 countries and many of those either have or want an EFAC chapter. They have no doubt that EFAC will benefit their churches. But, upon returning to the USA, we have been asked, “Why?” Why is EFAC needed, since we have GAFCON? Why was GAFCON needed, since we have EFAC? What’s the difference? Are EFAC and GAFCON competing? Or cooperating? Or does one make the other redundant? This article is meant to address these questions.
