It may be surprising to learn that J. Gresham Machen met with much adversity later in his life. He faced challenges both at Princeton and denominationally, leading Machen to form a new seminary and Presbyterian denomination. In this lesson, Dr. Nichols concludes his survey of Machen’s life, describing how Machen remained faithful to his life calling and work in service to Christ as a scholar and churchman.
