Since the first show in 1985 hundreds of thousands of people have visited Christian Resources Exhibitions (CRE) and left better trained, advised and equipped for ministry.
The 2004 Christian UK Christian Book Award (UKCBA) will be announced on the second day of CRE by Ann Widdecombe MP. It is a bi-annual, national event sponsored by the Christian Book Trust. The Awards aim to identify and promote, what is currently perceived as the best titles in Christian publishing and to promote the Christian faith, by raising the awareness of Christian books to the general public.
"The world and the church have changed greatly over the past twenty years. There are fewer people in church and yet at the same time there is a greater search for real meaning and satisfaction in life. Many people are on a spiritual quest. The challenges and opportunities facing a church committed to mission and evangelism are enormous. It is for this reason we need CRE more than ever and the theme this year of Future Church could not be more appropriate and relevant." Captain of Church Army Philip said.
