Uncle John, as we used to call him, was the dean of Evangelicals. He did more for networking Christians all around the globe than anyone else in our times. John Robert Walmsley Stott (April 27, 1921–July 27, 2011) became a Christian believer through England’s Varsity and Public School Camps. He became the rector of his family’s parish, All Souls Anglican Church, Langham Place, London. Despite pressure to separate, he defended staying within the Anglican Communion, which led to a sad rift with his friend Dr. Martin Lloyd-Jones, who advocated for splitting with the church and other institu- tions. Stott was a model churchman who believed there was a promising future for the Evangelical party within the Anglican communion.
