His wife was a Christian who was a regular attender of All Souls, Langham Place, London. In 1939, at School he heard Rev. Eric Nash speak on "What then shall I do with Jesus , who is Lord called the Christ?". Later that evening Stott decided to commit his energies to Christ and Evangelical Christianity. Stott studied Modern Languages at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1939 and then transferred to Ridley Hall Theological College so he could become ordained as an Anglican vicar. He was ordained in 1945 and went on to become a curate at All Souls, Langham Place from (1945 - 1950) then as Rector (1950 - 1975), and as Rector Emeritus since 1975. He was appointed a call Chaplain to radical discipleship Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom (Notes compiled by a listener at 1959 - 1991) and an address given by Extra Chaplain in 1991.
