Show Notes

Originally recorded in 2020, this episode commemorates the death of J. Gresham Machen on Jan. 1, 1937 in a tiny North Dakota hospital, alone and separated from friends or family save the Rev. Sam Allen, whose account we read. We also have context from Machen's biographer Ned Stonehouse. Here is the edition of The Presbyterian Journal (https://opc.org/cfh/guardian/Volume_3/1937-01-23.pdf) that marked Machen's death and a downloadable PDF (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MYfMayCxpWqtw8_Gp2rpHsvyzPGZaund/view) of the article by Rev. Samuel Allen (https://opc.org/today.html?history_id=533).
