One of my favorite theologians, Dr. John Stott, passed away back on July 27th at the age of 90. Regrettably, I read about it only today for the first time in my recent issue of Christianity Today. I had no idea.
I have to tell you, as silly as this sounds, I am much grieved. Only in recent months have I really been turning to his writings and they have impacted me big time. His work on Galatians, in particuliar, is informing much of what I preach on Sunday in our study on the epistle.
But even more than that, he died surrounded by friends and family listening to Handel’s "Messiah."
What a way to go out.
