| Mercersburg Lectures | | Date Created: Nov 17, 2005, 11:10 AM |
I mentioned in my last post that I spent some significant time in the late 80's and early 90's researching Nevin, Schaff, and Mercersburg theology. That work culminated in a few lectures I did in August 1992 at the Biblical Horizon's Bible Conference.
There are many men in our circles who know little or nothing about Mercersburg. I think that's a shame. Hart's biography should help. But I thought I'd contribute a bit myself with these older lectures.
Here is my first lecture, in two parts.
The Mercersburg Movement, Part 1
The Mercersburg Movement, Part 2

The first few sentences of this lecture were cut off. It begins with my comments about how little we study and know 19th-century history and theology. Most of our studies in seminary focus on the first 17 centuries of church history. Modern church history is largely neglected, expect perhaps as a foil to do apologetics against liberal and neoorthodox theology.
As I said above, these lectures were originally given in August 1992 at the Biblical Horizons Conference in Niceville, Florida. The topic for that conference was Worship & Sacrifice. The entire set can be purchased from Jim Jordan at
