In Episode 142 of Theology In Particular, I’m joined by Dr. Jeffery Riddle to discuss a book he has republished titled, Gospel Church Government. This book is an abridgment of John Owen’s book, The True Nature Of A Gospel Church And Its Government, first published in 1689. Naturally, we talk about John Owen too.
