  2. Retrieval and Reception in the Reformed Tradition (ft. Drew Martin)

    Retrieval and Reception in the Reformed Tradition (ft. Drew Martin)

    How should we read the Reformed tradition for our contemporary context? In the practice of theological retrieval, what role do continuity and development play? In this week's episode, we're featuring a lecture recently delivered by Dr. Drew Martin here at RTS Washington addressing these questions. Dr. Martin is Associate Professor of Systematic Theology at Covenant Seminary and an experienced pastor and church planter. His scholarship focuses on the Reformed Orthodox period and theological developments since that time. His most recent book is Grimké on the Christian Life: Christian Vitality for the Church and World. Want to continue this conversation in the classroom?
