Earlier this week Dr. John Webster, professor of divinity at St. Andrews University, died. For the next few days, we will be publishing pieces by friends, former students, and appreciative readers of Webster explaining what they learned about God from this marvelous theologian. I posted this on Facebook last night, but I’m going to say it here as well: It likely says something about Webster that after asking two separate people for pieces on him, I had both pieces in my inbox within a few hours. I’m going to pin this post to the top of the page for the next week or so because this is where I will keep track of the tribute pieces posted here and elsewhere as they go live and where I will share links to various lectures and books by Dr. Webster.

Thank you for offering thoughtful, reasonable and decent commentary. It is a boon to my sanity at this stage of my life in this cultural moment.

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