Summary


The great Puritan hymn writer and author of a widely used logic textbook also wrote an invaluable, erudite, but all-too-rare book about developing lifelong habits of reading, thinking, studying, and maturing. In this session we’ll explore the lessons he has to teach us for our own tumultuous days and our own high callings.

Speaker


In almost 40 years of ministry, George Grant has started a lot of things and somehow or another he has even managed to finish a few of them. Currently, he is the pastor of Parish Presbyterian Church in Franklin, Tennessee, where he also serves as the director of the King’s Meadow Study Center and teaches at the Franklin Classical School. He has planted four churches, established a fistful of schools and co-ops along with two colleges, accumulated a bottom drawer full of academic degrees, and is the author of enough out-of-print books to keep half the garage sales in the South fully stocked. But, by his own testimony, his greatest accomplishment is his ongoing role as husband of one, father of three, and grandfather of six (and counting).
