Few evangelical clergy will have their death announced by the BBC, and the fact that we awoke this morning to this announcement on Radio 4 shows what a worldwide tour de force John Stott was. Churches around the world have been blessed by his ministry, tens of thousands of people have come to know Christ through his preaching, teaching, writing and godliness. Even more than that, tens of thousands of church leaders have better understood the Bible as God's word because of his ministry, and that influence has cascaded down to millions.
If you have no idea who John Stott was, then please, read some of his books:
The Radical Disciple
Basic Christianity
The Cross of Christ
The Living Church
