Plans for Holy War

Jonathan and James sit down with returning guest Chad Van Dixhoorn, a professor of church history and theology at Reformed Theological Seminary, to explore Puritan John Arrowsmith's significant work, Plans for Holy War, one of the most expansive treatments of spiritual warfare ever written. A new English version was recently published by Reformation Heritage Books that presents modern readers with an exceptional guide to spiritual warfare. Having written the introduction and served as its editor, Chad explains why Plans for Holy War is worthy of translation and reintroduction to the church.

Thanks to our friends at Reformation Heritage Books, we are pleased to award a couple of copies of Plans for Holy War to our listeners. Congratulations David M. from Independence, MO and Ron G. from Bluffton, IN!
