For many people who heard him, Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones was perhaps the greatest preacher in the English language in the twentieth century. He possessed a rare gift of communicating the truth, wonder and power of the gospel. His grandson, Christopher Catherwood, had the privilege of seeing the inner man. In this absorbing book he therefore brings a fresh perspective on the Doctor's life, and the convictions which shaped his long and fruitful ministry. Those who read it and heard him preach will be reminded of the ministry of this prince of preachers. One also hopes that many who never heard him will be encouraged to read his books and listen to his sermons. Those who do so will not be disappointed. --Lindsay Brown, International Director, the Lausanne Movement and former General Secretary of IFES (International Fellowship of Evangelical Students)
This book is a good, quick recounting of the life and ministry of Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones from one who knew him personally. Christopher Catherwood, the Doctor's eldest grandchild, puts the books you've enjoyed in the context of Lloyd-Jones's life and ministry. The author carefully and fairly interprets Lloyd-Jones - even on points where he himself may disagree. He succeeds in faithfully reproducing some of the Doctor's nuances and ambiguities that others have overlooked. The book's informal, even casual style makes it easy to read - like you're having an engaging evening's conversation with an old friend. I heartily commend the books and sermons of Martyn-Lloyd Jones, and this book as an encouragement and help. --Mark Dever, Senior Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington DC; President, 9Marks
God is raising up a new generation of preachers who aim faithfully to expound Scripture in the Reformed heritage, who are passionate about evangelism, who talk up justification and sanctification, who are eager to plant churches in challenging contexts. They want and need models - ideally, not because they want to become thoughtless clones, but because the Bible itself helps us see how much is learned by imitation. One of the crucially important models of the twentieth century is Martyn Lloyd-Jones, whose homegoing in 1981 is just far enough back that a new generation of young preachers does not automatically know him. May this brief, balanced, and personal biography of Lloyd-Jones, written by one of his grandsons, go a long way to providing the incentive to study him afresh, to listen or read his sermons, and thus to increase the circle of those we should emulate in gospel faithfulness --D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
Few who heard Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones preach will ever forget the experience, not because of his presence as a minister, but on account of the sense of wonder at the gospel that he conveyed.
Those, like the author, who had the privilege of knowing him up close, are uniquely placed to comment on his life and passion. Christopher Catherwood examines the remarkable life and legacy of his Welsh grandfather, tracing his relevance to the twenty-first century.
Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones was adamant that all doctrine and practice should originate in Scripture. This volume focuses on key principles, showing how these were arrived at using a biblical framework. The author looks at the controversies, but sets them in context.
This is not a conventional biography, but one that sheds light on a hugely interesting era of UK evangelicalism, which we do well to remember.
