Introduction to the Reformed Tradition: by John H. LeithAuthor: John H. Leith |
![]() |
| "One of the clearest, cleanest expositions of the Reformed and Presbyterian tradition that I have ever seen. It may well be the definitive interpretation of who we are and from whence we have come as American Presbyterians. This book will be an invaluable and lasting resource, not only for ministers who seek to be preachers, teachers, and pastors in the Reformed tradition, but especially for lay people who desire to know what it means to believe in God and to follow Christ as an American Presbyterian. The Reformed tradition is not simply something to be studied. It is a viable life-style and truth-style for contemporary people. John Leith has apprehended its moods. He lived it in his ministry as a pastor. He embodies the object of his scholarship and those who know and love him have in him good evidence that it all rings true."---Wallace M. Alston, Jr., Nassau Presbyterian Church, Princeton, New Jersey "This is a volume rich in historical background, and will result in assisting members of the Presbyterian and Reformed Churches today to recapture their identity and to gain a sense of direction and purpose. A comprehensive, even encyclopedic, account of the Reformed tradition."---James I. McCord, President, Princeton Theological Seminary "Dr. Leith has, in a rare way, combined gratitude for and pride in the Reformed Tradition with an objective attitude. While clearly documenting the Reformed Tradition's tremendous contribution, he constantly emphasizes the future as challenging all Christians to clearer thinking and fresh dedication. This book is a worthy contribution to the literature of the Reformed Churches and contains a wealth of historical, theological, ecclesiastical and devotional material to make it a valuable addition to any library."---J. McDowell Richards, President Emeritus, Columbia Theological Seminary Date Published: 1/1/80 |
