Dr. Michael Haykin, Professor of Church History and Biblical SpiritualityIn the battle against vital doctrinal declension in the early 20th century, Gresham Machen played a very significant role in defending classic Christian orthodoxy. But it is a role few are acquainted with since biographies of him have been scarce and hard to obtain. This new study of his life is therefore welcome indeed. Highly recommended.
Michael S. Horton, J. Gresham Machen Professor of Systematic Theology and ApologeticsTaking its bearings from the Heidelberg Catechism, Pierre Marcel's In God's School is an outstanding aid for teaching the Christian faith to young and old alike. Motivated by a deeply pastoral interest in communicating the riches of Christ, with a lively sense of the personal as well as corporate dimensions of our faith, this work is of enormous contemporary value. Similarly motivated, Dr. Howard Griffith has put us in his debt for making available this clear and elegant translation. This is not simply a book to be read, but a trellis that winds our hearts toward God.
Frank A. James III, President and Professor of Historical TheologyMarcel's book, In God's School, is a rich vein of pastoral encouragement (and hitherto untapped resource for English speakers). This little book excavates from the quarry of the Reformation and its deep pastoral theology. Howard Griffith has given us a spiritual gold mine by his masterful translation of this French treasure. Read it, meditate on it, and your soul will glitter with blessing.
