The memorial website for John Stott is up and running. It contains many gems, not least some brilliant videos.

Those of us who knew him in any way can affirm that this is no false modesty.

No wonder there have been memorial events all around the globe. Here in Sydney the Archbishop spoke at a service at St Andrew's Cathedral (sermon text here [pdf]).
