Charlotte Chapel History in 10 minutes
On 12 March 2016, the members and friends of Charlotte Chapel met in the Rose Street building for a farewell commemoration of their time in Rose Street, before moving to larger premises in Shandwick Place. As part of it, Ian Balfour was asked to give a 10 minute summary of his 200-years written history of Charlotte Chapel. For more information on the church’s history please click here.
Church History – 36 Illustrated Lectures
When Ian completed his Ph.D. and was invited to lecture part-time on Church History at the Scottish Baptist College, he preferred to give an ‘overview’ of the two thousand years. He also did this three times, for eight weeks at a time, at the Asian Theological College in Manila in the Philippines in 2001 and 2002. He similarly taught students at the Faith Mission Bible College from 2008 to 2012 and at the Edinburgh Bible College from 2013 to 2016, as well as ‘Saturday only’ students at the Institute of Biblical Studies, held at the Carrubbers Christian Centre in Edinburgh, every year from 1995 to 2016.
Now that he is no longer able to deliver these lectures in person, he has been asked to make them available in this format, for any who would like an overview of Western Church History. Read More
Scholarly edition of the Charlotte Chapel History
In this section a PDF is available for download with the text of the Charlotte Chapel History without the photographs but with footnotes. For want of a better phrase, Ian has called it a ‘Scholarly edition of the Charlotte Chapel History’. The reason for putting it onto the website is that while the book is now live on the Internet, viewers without the CD which went with the book will not be able to access the edition with the footnotes, so this version makes the footnotes available online.
