“ ...it may be a surprise that in the First World War Machen chose not to fight as a warrior. Instead he regularly risked his life in embattled France as a humanitarian non-combatant serving with the YMCA... This volume rounds out our understanding of Machen the brilliant scholar by also revealing him as a servant of Christ to needy and suffering soldiers.”
–From the foreword by Peter A. Lillback

Listen to a lecture by George Marsden entitled Machen's View of History and Truth.

Publisher’s Description

Never before published, here is a glimpse into the formative years of a great campaigner for the faith... and a stirring example of how the faith of a seminary professor was refined and strengthened through the trials of war.

Barry Waugh adds commentary and footnotes to provide essential guidance for fully understanding Machen's service and ministry.
