J. Gresham Machen’s classic Christianity and Liberalism is around one hundred years old, and it is still proving to be relevant and necessary. This is because its main subject matter is Christian truth, which never changes yet always seems to be under attack. In this lesson, Dr. Nichols provides the historical context of Machen’s book to underscore why it was and is so urgently needed.
