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.

30 September 1770 A.D. (Video) Revivalist George Whitefield Dies--Drs. Lloyd-Jones & Steve Lawson


30 September 1770.  Anglican revivalist, George Whitefield, dies.

Dr. D. Martyn-Lloyd Jones tells the story of Rev. George Whitefield.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhN2VgdJp_c&feature=sharecontrol

Steve Lawson, a Rebaptizer, gives his perspective on the “Great Awakening.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4pJgvreFwE

Another perspective, given here.  A bit uncritical and somewhat enthusiastic.  The Great Awakening wasn’t so great in some respects.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gjp1OwFPK0
