Gentleman And A Scholar

This republication of Broadus’s classic memoir of his beloved friend and colleague, James P. Boyce, has the potential to instruct and convict. Boyce loved theology. He committed his life to its instruction and particularly to the conserving of historic confessional, Calvinistic Baptist witness. His students loved, admired, and respected him for this and Broadus communicates both Boyce’s passion and his students’ appreciation clearly. Boyce loved preaching. None can evaluate his adeptness at it better than Broadus. Boyce had enough courage and clear conviction to protect the theological foundation of the school in the face of impending theological decline. Broadus tells this gripping story with manliness and poignancy. All lovers of truth within all evangelical denominations should welcome enthusiastically the appearance of this old book with a new and appropriate title: A Gentleman and a Scholar.
