GoodBookStall Review:
Rhys Bevan’s life as an uncompromising Baptist minister, evangelist, hymn writer and Bible college teacher spanned both the Welsh Revival and the onset of Darwinism. As well as telling the story of his life, the book delves in some detail into his doctrinal position and theological disputes with his fellow Baptists and with others. It will, therefore, appeal primarily to those who are fascinated by that era and by the birth pangs of the modern church. Over all, this is a portrait of a man who stood firm in his convictions, unmoved by plaudits and brickbats alike, and an insight into an interesting, and indeed turbulent, period in our history.
