Few would argue with descriptions of Lloyd-Jones as ‘the greatest preacher the English-speaking world has seen in the 20th century’ (Eric Alexander), ‘one of the greatest preachers of all time’ (John MacArthur), or even ‘the greatest preacher in Christendom’ (Wilbur Smith).
These are all quotes used by Steven Lawson to set out his stall in introducing us to the physician turned preacher, claiming that ‘More than any other individual, Lloyd-Jones is most directly responsible for the recovery of biblical preaching during the latter half of the 20th century, and the effects of his ministry continue to this day.’
