Although I don’t agree with him in everything nevertheless I do appreciate the apologist and evangelist Francis Schaeffer.
This is a rare clip of Francis Schaeffer teaching. This was recently loaded online on Youtube courtesy of the Francis Schaeffer Study Center on the occasion of Resurrection Sunday.
Here’s the video’s description:
This video is from the 1983 L’Abri Conference in Atlanta. The full lecture with Q&A time has been included. The lecture was also previously given on May 11, 1983 in Minneapolis at the Evangelical Press Association Convention. A transcript of this lecture is available here: http://edmontonbpc.org/wp/2012/02/names-and-issues-by-francis-schaeffer/
Enjoy!
Thanks SJ
I’ve learnt much from him.
You’re welcome brother!
I first read Francis Scheffer in 1978 Escape From Reason. It was hard for me to understand it then being from a different culture that what he was speaking of.
My wife has read everything by Schaeffer and we talked about some of the books he has written and I agree, sometimes I wonder what is he trying to get at.
Good to know I’m not the only one. Lol
I remember how popular he was in the late 70’s and early 80’s. His influence on the body of Christ back then was very strong.
I do think there is some influence Schaeffer has today though it’s not as strong as the heyday during the last twenty years of his life
Thanks for sharing the video SJ. I’ve read a few of his works when in Bible college …listening to him brought back memories of some of his teachings.
Wow thanks for sharing and interesting to know that you read his works in Bible college! My wife loves Francis Schaeffer works and have read everything by him, so I guess there is a multi-generational influence he had but I understand he was more influential in the 80s
