Research for the Academy and the Church: Tyndale House and Fellowship

About this book

For more than sixty years, Tyndale House and the associated Tyndale Fellowship have made a unique and vital contribution to the healthy condition of contemporary biblical studies, and of historic Christianity in the United Kingdom and worldwide.The House and Fellowship were founded in 1944, at a time when many conservative Christians failed to see any need for 'biblical and theological research', and when many academics were sceptical about whether committed Christians could engage in such research with intellectual integrity. The founders included such figures as F.F. Bruce, W.J. Martin, Douglas Johnson and D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones.Thomas A. Noble traces the history of Tyndale House and the Tyndale Fellowship across the decades. His detailed narrative covers internal discussions and debates, progress through difficulties and discouragements, and eventual outward recognition, success and influence.This valuable and informative volume will appeal to all who know Tyndale House and its work, members of the Fellowship and related institutions, and all with an interest in the history of Christianity in the twentieth century.
