02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

Solas exists to share the good news of Jesus persuasively and to equip Christians for evangelism practically. We work with churches, Christian Unions, and other groups to help them take the gospel out of the four walls of the Church and into places where non-Christians spend their time: universities, workplaces, cafes, schools, pubs, and online. Solas also works in the ‘digital marketplace’, producing content for non-Christians (sharing the gospel) and for Christians (equipping them for evangelism). Our team of speakers have also written many books, extending Solas’s reach even further as we seek to make Jesus known and help Christians to do the same.
