The Puritans (Part 1) | Dr Benedict Bird
"J.I. Packer said of the Puritans, ‘all creation, so far as they were concerned, was sacred, and all activities, of whatever kind, must be sanctified, that is done to the glory of God…. Seeing life whole, they integrated contemplation with action, worship with work, labour with rest, love of God with love of neighbour and of self, personal with social identity, and the wide spectrum of relational responsibilities with each other, in a thoroughly conscientious and thought-out way.'
Dr Benedict Bird, a faculty member of Westminster Seminary UK, examines the life and legacy of ten Puritan men and women, showing us why George Whitefield could say, ‘The Puritans [were] burning and shining lights.’" from the video introduction
