Reviews for Reformed Confessionalism in Nineteenth Century America: Essays on the Thought of John Williamson Nevin (ATLA Monograph Series)
This volume is a welcome addition to the growing literature on the Mercersburg theology. I highly recommend it to those who are interested in nineteenth-century Reformed thought, as well as those who are searching for a more satisfying alternative to the "new measures" of the modern church-growth movement.
