The Evangelical Resurgence in Anglicanism

from Well-Informed & Open-Minded

Evangelical Christianity is staging an unlikely comeback inside Britain’s most traditional church. In this episode, we explore how the Church of England is fighting decades of decline by “planting” new, youth-oriented congregations inspired by Holy Trinity Brompton—swapping organs and robes for live bands, casual dress, and even craft beer. These churches are drawing hundreds of young worshippers, but not without controversy. Critics argue they’re draining life from older parishes and quietly shifting Anglicanism toward a more socially conservative future. Is this bold reinvention a genuine revival—or a risky takeover reshaping the soul of the church?https://www.economist.com/britain/2018/10/27/trendy-new-churches-poach-worshippers-from-stuffy-ones
