On a Sunday afternoon in 1935, J. Gresham Machen stepped into a broadcast booth at WIP Radio in Philadelphia and began something no one had tried before: teaching Reformed theology over the radio. His innovative talks found an audience who were hungry for truth in an age of crisis. In the vein of C.S. Lewis's landmark "Mere Christianity" talks, Machen's radio addresses are a crystal-clear articulation of the basics of the Christian faith, unfolding into an exceptional and persuasive explanation of Reformed theology. Characterized throughout by biblical scholarship and love for the gospel of Christ, Things Unseen is both an accessible systematic theology, and a masterclass in evangelistic apologetics. Introduced by Timothy J. Keller, with contributions from Sinclair B. Ferguson, Stephen J. Nichols, and Richard B. Gaffin, Jr., this edition collects all 50 of Machen's radio addresses. Also included are subject and scripture indexes, along with a helpful index to Machen's frequent references to the Westminster Standards. -- Jacket flap.
