Crowning Christ King  September 10-11, 2010  Presbyterian Theological Centre, Sydney

The Scottish Reformation of 1560 was driven by Christians who were passionate that Christ should be Lord in his church. They wanted the truth of the gospel to be clear, God to be worshipped and his people to live for him. Those events laid the foundation of Presbyterian Churches around the world. 450 years later the truth and passion of the Scottish
Reformation is part of our heritage. We need the same passion that Christ should be Lord.
