The Bible Convictions of John Wycliffe (Lawson)
C$21.99
A Long Line of Godly Men
The fourteenth century was a dark time for the church in England. Superstition and error obscured the truth of the gospel, and even the clergy had little knowledge of the Bible. Against this bleak backdrop, God raised up a scholar and preacher who would stand with conviction on His Word, even if it meant standing alone.
Trusting Scripture as his highest authority, John Wycliffe believed the Bible was what England needed most. Only through the Word of God would the Holy Spirit reform hearts and, in turn, reform the church. But for this to happen, Wycliffe knew that everyday people needed to have the Bible in their own language.
In The Bible Convictions of John Wycliffe, Dr. Steven Lawson tells how Wycliffe’s devotion to the gospel made him the forerunner of the Reformation who translated the Bible into English for the first time. We’re indebted to him for our English Bibles today, and his story can encourage us to establish our convictions on God’s Word.

- “Every Christian who values the Holy Scriptures and who prizes the gospel of the grace of God in Christ should know about John Wycliffe. Steven Lawson has made Wycliffe’s story—a story of courage, conviction, and gospel passion—accessible and engaging for Christians of all ages. It is a thrilling story, told by a man who exhibits the same gospel passion that animated Wycliffe. Read it, learn from it, and above all thank God for raising up John Wycliffe. Pray that He will again in these days raise up men of like conviction and passion.” -- Rev. Dr. Ian Hamilton
