Machen and the Liberal Challenge
This chapter examines the theological struggles of J. Gresham Machen within Northern Protestantism, specifically addressing the rise of liberal theology in the early 20th century. It highlights Machen's critical response to liberal ideologies and his commitment to orthodox beliefs, culminating in the publication of his influential work, 'Christianity and Liberalism.' The discussion also reflects on the broader implications of these theological tensions within the context of Princeton Seminary and the founding of Westminster Theological Seminary.
