On Francis Schaeffer
November 16th, 2006Francis Schaeffer never presented himself as an academic apologist, as a philosopher, as a theologian or as a scholar. Instead he spoke of himself as an evangelist and a pastor, and this truly is how he thought about the ministry that God had graciously given him.
So begins an interesting article on Francis Schaeffer.
I had never heard of Schaeffer until a few years ago when I borrowed How Should We Then Live from my pastor. It had, and continues to have, a profound affect on me.
If you’ve never read Schaeffer, or perhaps have never even heard of him, I recommend the article above as a good introduction.
