Reviews

[Johnny Zacchio jr.]

I wish people wrote like this man in the modern day. He captured the life of Thomas Boston beautifully and accurately. Boston has become a hero in the faith for me recently. I count it a privilege to be writing my dissertation on him!

[Matthew Prydden]

My 2nd greatest Christian hero.

[Stephen Mccollum]

A good introduction to the world in which Thomas Boston lived. Scotland could do with a few more men like him, ministers who will stand for truth and also preach the Gospel freely.
