Wonderful introduction to Andrew Fuller
I love Michael Haykin and would recommend anything written by him and look forward to reading more of his books. This book was a wonderful introduction to Andrew Fuller. I find myself leaning more and more to the Reformed Baptist faith after a horrible introduction to the Reformed faith in the spiritually dead, sterile, and purely academic Orthodox Presbyterian Church. I think the two deepest impressions made on me by this book were the Baptist commitment to missions and Fuller's antipathy toward High Calvinism, which resonates with me deeply after my horrible experience in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church as a convert from a lifetime of Roman Catholicism five years ago. Most of the book consists of excerpts from Fuller's correspondence, so you're not just told about Fuller but read him in his own words. I think this is a fantastic series and am now reading Haykin's work on George Whitefield, after having already read Dallimore's two-volume biography of Whitefield. I saw that there was a planned volume on Thomas Boston that I would have liked to have read, but nothing seems to have come of it. Highly recommended.Read full review
