"An Educated Clergy"

History & Biography

“Since Calvin stated in his Ecclesiastical Ordinances in 1541, 'It will be necessary to build a college,' Presbyterians have supported the concept of an educated clergy. Dr. Whytock has written the most comprehensive study of this principle in the Scottish Church spanning three centuries. He brings together in this study a wealth of information and reflection which enhances our knowledge of the professors, students, curriculum, and locations which produced generations of Scottish church leaders.”
