The first memorial piece for Dr. John Webster comes from Joshua Malone, a former student of his.
Upon recollection, two qualities of the man, John Webster, stand out in my mind: a passion for our triune God and a forgetfulness of self. Before now, the co-inherence of these twin virtues in John never struck me (apologies to another John, John Calvin… they probably should have). In light of his passing, the connection now seems painfully obvious.

Mere Orthodoxy is (for me) a counterpoint to social media, a place of depth and critical thought.
