I wanted to mention to Ian that there is a whole chapter on Andrew Bonar in my book and I do talk about McCheyne in that chapter as well.

Bit disappointed there wasn’t a little bit more about Andrew Bonar, and maybe a shout out for his Diary which David MacIntyre said was ‘probably the best treatise on private prayer which we possess. Originally meant to mark the memorabilia of his life, it became, almost exclusively , an instrument for recording and testing his prayers.’ Also, surprised Robert McCheyne didn’t get a mention, his godly life and early death has exercised huge influence over generations of British believers.

But these are minor quibbles and I do realise there are time restraints.

Incidentally, I never knew that Spurgeon and John Kennedy were big mates. Amazing, considering how strict a Presbyterian Kennedy was.

For those who have an interest the debate Kennedy had with Horatius Bonar over DL Moody is available in print. For my money Bonar had the better of it. You can get it through the James Begg Society (they are on the net). it’s entitled Evangelism: A Reformed Debate by John Kennedy and Horatius Bonar

Princeton Seminary has many paintings, etchings, and documents displayed on the walls of Luce Library that commemorate the founding of the Free Church of Scotland. It is a part of Reformed history that I see documented almost everyday, but know little about. Thanks for the program.
