Aims and Objectives of the EFB Project

2008-01-21T12:08:00.002Z

Hello and welcome to the EFB blog.

The goal of this blog is to support the research project on Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism in Britain by fostering conversation and disseminating information. The EFB Project is a two year interdisciplinary research project which seeks to bring together different groups to examine the relationship of Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism over time in Britain; and to draw on the conceptual and methodological contributions of different disciplines and of Evangelicals themselves in order to illuminate the identity of British Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism.

The objectives over the next two years (2008-2010) are:

1. to hold a series of gatherings bringing together historians, theologians, sociologists and others to explore expressions of Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism

2. to generate papers suitable for publication in academic periodicals on these questions

3. to enable younger scholars to participate in discussion of these topics

4. to draw Evangelicals in churches and theological colleges into consideration of issues surrounding the relationship between their beliefs and Fundamentalism

5. to encourage knowledge and understanding of such issues in the wider Evangelical community, particularly through the EA magazine IDEA

6. and to provide information in the field for the general public through a final event
