“John Brown of Haddington is one of the great evangelical lights that shone in a dark time for Scottish Presbyterianism. The eighteenth century saw the rise of moderatism in the Kirk, but God raised up many great men in those days (Thomas Boston and the Erskines, for instance), and Brown was one of them. Brown, a Seceder, not only faithfully pastored but faithfully prepared pastors for the ministry. It shows in this correspondence. These letters to pastors and those preparing for the pastoral ministry of the church offer a wide range of counsel relating to preaching, life, and character and are filled with gospel wisdom and truth. I have been personally edified by reading gems from Brown, and I am glad that ministerial students and fellow pastors will be able to do so more readily. Do not miss this book!”
