John Stott

===Writing===
He wrote over 50 books, some of which appear only in Chinese, Korean, or Spanish, as well as many articles and papers.

One of these is ''Basic Christianity'',{{sfn|Stott|1958}} a book which seeks to explain the message of Christianity, and convince its readers of its truth and importance.

''The Preacher's Portrait: Some New Testament Word Studies'', published in 1961,{{sfn|Stott|1961}} it was an important reference for clergy.

He was also the author of ''The Cross of Christ'' ({{ISBN|0-87784-998-6}}), of which [[J. I. Packer]] stated, "No other treatment of this supreme subject says so much so truly and so well."<ref>{{Cite web |last=Taylor |first=Justin |title=John R. W.

Other books he wrote include ''Essentials: A Liberal–Evangelical Dialogue'', a dialogue with the liberal cleric and theologian [[David L. Edwards]],{{sfnm |1a1=Edwards |1a2=Stott |1y=1988 |2a1=Stott |2y=2014 |2p=48}} over whether what evangelicals hold as essential should be seen as such.  In 2005, he produced ''Evangelical Truth'', which summarises what he perceives as being the central claims of Christianity, essential for evangelicalism.

Upon his formal retirement from public engagements, he continued to engage in regular writing until his death. In 2008, he produced ''The Anglican Evangelical Doctrine of Infant Baptism'' with [[J. Alec Motyer]].{{sfn|Stott|Motyer|2008}}

An introduction to his thought can be found in his two final substantial publications, which act as a summation of his thinking. Both were published by the publishing house with which he had a lifelong association, [[Inter-Varsity Press|IVP]].
* In 2007, his reflections on the life of the church: ''The Living Church: Convictions of a Lifelong Pastor''.
* In January 2010, at the age of 88, he saw the launch of what would be his final book: ''The Radical Disciple''.  It concludes with a poignant farewell and appeal for his legacy to be continued through the work of the Langham Partnership International.
