Join Keith Berry and Shoe Lane Library for this exciting talk on William Tyndale and his translation work for Christianity.

This page is for in-person tickets for this event - please see our separate page for online tickets.

1526 is a key date in the history of the church, and of the world, when the New Testament was translated for the first time into English by William Tyndale. In this 500th anniversary year, it is good to tell the story again and ponder on the significance of this event in spiritual, cultural and linguistic terms. There are many places in London where Tyndale left his mark.

Keith does tours as well as talks and his illustrated lecture aims to bring them together as we journey “in his steps”. He is originally from Wales but is now based in West London. He has spent many years in Baptist ministry serving local churches around the UK. The life and achievement of Tyndale ignited his passion for church history. He is thrilled to be able to share his knowledge in this talk.

This event will be delivered both in-person and online. To book an online ticket, please visit our online booking page.
