Vintage Timothy George: The 2017 Kistemaker Lectures and the Witness of Four Reformers

Timothy George, Dean of Beeson Divinity School, is well-known for his outstanding writings on the Reformers and his many lectures on the Reformation. This year Reformed Theological Seminary invited George to give the Kistemaker Academic Lecture Series. No surprise here, but the lectures were vintage George! Dr. George decided to lecture on “RETRIEVAL FOR THE SAKE OF RENEWAL: The Witness of Four Reformers.” Below is RTS’s description followed by the lectures.
