Autor

Reuben Archer Torrey (1856–1928) was an American evangelist, pastor, educator, and writer. Torrey graduated from Yale University in 1875 and Yale Divinity School in 1878. After a period of skepticism, he experienced a religious conversion that set the course for his lifelong ministry work. He became a prominent figure in the Christian world, known especially for his efforts to reconcile the intellectual aspects of faith with the need for personal experience of God's presence. As an evangelist, he collaborated with the famed D.L. Moody, influencing the church both in America and abroad during his revival campaigns. An advocate for an intellectually engaged faith, Torrey was also a dedicated scholar. His book, 'The Fundamental Doctrines of the Christian Faith' (1918), delves into the essential teachings of Christianity, tackling subjects such as the deity of Christ, the inspiration of the Scriptures, and the role of the Holy Spirit. His literary style was clear and assertive, aimed at providing believers with a firm doctrinal foundation. The book remains an influential work among Christian apologetics, reflecting Torrey's commitment to the inerrancy of the Bible and the core tenets of evangelical Christianity. His other notable works include 'How to Pray' and 'What the Bible Teaches,' each of which contributed to his reputation as a man committed to the study, practice, and spread of the Gospel.
