Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month.

A Rare Interview with Martyn Lloyd-Jones

The following is a rare video interview with Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981).

It was filmed in 1970, when Lloyd-Jones was 70 years old, two years after his retirement from Westminster Chapel in 1968 and eleven years before his death.

The interviewer is Aneirin Talfan Davies (1909-1980), a noted Welsh broadcaster who was also a poet and literary critic.
Davies was once a member of the Calvinistic Methodist Church but later joined the Anglican Church. In fact, seven years earlier, in April and June of 1963, Lloyd-Jones and Davies had a theological debate with each other on ecumenism, written in Welsh. (See the translation of some of their exchange in Iain Murray’s D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones: Letters 1919-1981, 143-163.)
