This is part 2 of a 3-part series. Our self-obsessed age has attempted to construct human identity apart from the God who made us. This has resulted in what Augustine called "the void of self" and is why modern people can feel so empty. Only in a return to our Creator can this appalling condition be rectified. This series explores how understanding God is the only hope for people who are floundering in themselves. In this second talk, we examine ‘The God Who is True to Himself’ – something not possible for humans and the reason we only become ourselves in relation to him.

Andrew Fellows was appointed pastor of a church in Bradford, West Yorkshire in 1988 where he served for seven years. In 1995 his family moved to the English branch of L’Abri Fellowship, where they lived and worked for 21 years. From 2011 to 2016 Andrew was the chairman of L’Abri International. Now based in Cambridge Andrew is the pastor of a newly formed church alongside his work as Director of Apologetics for Christian Heritage. He has a special interest in reaching sceptics and encouraging followers of Christ to develop the life of the mind so it includes the whole gospel to the whole world with all of its implications. Later this year IVP are publishing his book 'Smuggling Jesus Back Into the Church; How Not to be Worldly'. Andrew is married to Helen. They have four children and two grandchildren.
