A profound exploration of key themes in Reformed theologyJoin students of Princeton Seminary's confessional period as they listen to the wisdom of revered Reformed theologian Geerhardus Vos. Through six chapel addresses, Vos covers numerous topics, spanning from philosophy of religion to sanctification, evangelism, the nature of pastoral ministry, and the Christian's attitude toward eschatology. Combining challenging abstract theological concepts with real-world calling, Vos pulls in both the mind and the spirit and joins them into a call for Christian discipleship focused on following Jesus as both Lord and master. Unique to this edition, readers will find Dr. Vos's Inaugural Princeton address given when he joined the seminary fulltime in 1894. That address, The Idea of Biblical Theology as a Science and as a Discipline, heavily influenced the methodology and outcomes of Reformed theologians for next one hundred years.Whether you are interested in Reformed theology or note, Vos's work in these pages is required reading to understand the development of Reformed theology in the twentieth century specifically as well as the course of confessional conservative evangelicalism in the United States generally.
