'When Emil Brunner called Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones ‘the greatest preacher in Christendom," he did not have the greater historical perspective that we have today. Yet the passing years , since the passing of "the Doctor" has confirmed his and many other's assessment. It is my honor and privilege to comment a new biography of this remarkable Christian leader by one who was his friend, student, fellow countryman, and a man who has made his own mark on preaching and preparing preachers, Dr. Eryl Davies.
While I have read and studied the life and ministry of Dr. Lloyd-Jones, as so many others have, I found that, as I read this new book from Dr. Davies, I discovered fresh insights and was given a new perspective. This comes from the very personal and pastoral approach that Dr. Davies takes in his book. I commend this outstanding new biography of Lloyd-Jones to both pastors, seminarians and, because of its warm, readable style, to all believers.
Indeed, I think of how Lloyd-Jones would tell Christians to read a good Christian biography before going to sleep, in order to read of God's faithfulness to others and then take that demonstration of faith as a divine sedative to calm the soul. It is remarkable, then, that his own life, written by Dr. Davies, is a book that will be on my own bedside table. I pray it will find its way into many homes, and into the hearts and minds of many believers around the world.' - Michael A. Milton, Ph.D. (University of Wales) Chancellor/CEO and James M. Baird Jr. Professor of Pastoral Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary
"Every Christian should know more about the life and ministry of Dr. D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones. Whether you have a slight acquaintance or have read the official two volumes of his life there are still important insights and practical lessons to be gained from reading the observations of those who knew and loved him for many years. No other man equalled Dr. Lloyd-Jones in a recognized command of the situation. There is the fascination of the great adventure he set out on when he left his medical career in London to become a preacher in Aberavon. There are the books and the recordings of his preaching which evidence his remarkable clarity and warm cogency, his unswerving loyalty to Christ, his undaunted courage. A profitable couple of hours lie before anyone reading Dr. Eryl Davies' study of this admirable man'. -- Geoff Thomas, Pastor, Alfred Place Baptist Church, Aberystwyth, Wales
