Testimonials about the life of Francis Schaeffer

“For many in the 1960s, Francis Schaeffer was the great door opener – opening the door to regaining the lordship of Christ over the whole of life and culture. For me personally, he stood head and shoulders above most others because of the way he took God so seriously, people so seriously and truth so seriously. A flawed human being as we all are, he was a giant of the faith to whom we owe more than many people realize.”
--Os Guinness, author and social critic

"Back in the sixties and seventies, I was one of many younger evangelicals who fell under the spell of Francis Schaeffer.  He taught us to think deeply and widely about the Christian faith, to pursue the life of the mind, and to remember the one mark of the Christian most often forgotten today – the love which lets the world know that we belong to Jesus. As never before, we need to revisit the legacy of Schaeffer today.”
--Timothy George, founding dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University and senior editor of Christianity Today

“One of my most vivid memories of Schaeffer was waiting for him to arrive at our small London apartment where a group of students had met to hear him speak. Schaeffer was an hour late because he had been outside in the taxi talking to the driver about the Christian gospel! But this incident exemplified what I had come to admire about him. His sense of both the greatness and tragedy of human life pervaded everything he said, as did the corresponding sense that God has spoken and has given to us truth which is unshakable.”
