Throughout he provides concrete guidance on how ordinary Christians can rise up to seek justice throughout the world.This landmark work, featuring newly updated statistics, is now part of the IVP Signature Collection, which features special editions of iconic books in celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of InterVarsity Press.

John Robert Walmsley Stott (April 27, 1921 – July 27, 2011) was an influential British theologian and Anglican minister, recognized as one of the most prominent figures in the global evangelical movement of the 20th century. His legacy includes more than 50 books translated into over 65 languages, among which Basic Christianity (1958) and The Cross of Christ (1986) stand out, works that have left a profound mark on contemporary Christian theology

Stott studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he earned a double degree in French and German, and then trained for ministry at Ridley Hall, Cambridge. He was ordained a deacon in 1945 and a priest in 1946, beginning his ministry at All Souls Church, Langham Place, in London, where he served as rector from 1950 to 1975

In 1974, he was one of the main authors of the Lausanne Covenant, a key document in the history of global evangelism. Additionally, he founded the Langham Partnership in 2002, an organization dedicated to training Christian leaders in the developing world

Stott was recognized for his expository clarity and commitment to faithful biblical preaching. In 2005, Time magazine included him in its list of the 100 most influential people in the world. He passed away in 2011 at the age of 90, leaving a lasting legacy in the global church
