W. Stanford Reid: An Evangelical Calvinist in the Academy Volume 31

By A. Donald MacLeod

Book Overview

MacLeod's in-depth analysis examines how an observant Christian academic, unapologetically Calvinist, openly articulated his faith in a secular environment and helped convince evangelicals to abandon their ghettoizing anti-intellectualism. His discussion of Reid's international networking serves as a reminder of the way in which Canadian evangelicalism was influenced by and in turn influenced the United States, where Reid's influence was appreciable, both as a trustee of Westminster Seminary for thirty-seven years and as editor at large of the nascent Christianity Today. W. Stanford Reid is a poignant, in-depth investigation of the life of a man whose career spanned academia and church.
