I've been following the Pope's visit to the UK ,listening to his sermons, and preparing myself to pick holes in what he was saying.

Whilst my evangelical theology has great problems with much of the Catholic teaching, I have to say that I think his time over here has been very worthwhile.

The challenge to our politicians not to push the Christian view away was so needed in this time of extreme secularism. The encouragement to young people to live a good life and follow the way of God was refreshing in our post modern' world.

I trust that us Evangelicals who are so certain of our doctrine and way of worshipping will be willing to stand up and challenge the demise of the truth of God's world in our country.
