Note:"This brief book is based on five lectures delivered on the L.P. Stone Foundation at Princeton Theological Seminary during April 1955.... what follows is an attempt to suggest what a Christian scholar is like, how he comes by a sense of his calling, how he may reconcile his scholarly zeal with this Christian faith, and how his work affects the development of Christianity, through a study of a few Christian scholars of the Reformation period and some of their predecessors who influenced them." -- Preface
