Description
The church today is filled with folks eager to run with a message but who cannot deliver an accurate report. Others understand the gospel quite well but do not run with it. In his life, Ernest Reisinger attempted to unite truth and zeal, and his book assists us toward the same worthy goal.

Author
Ernest C Reisinger (1919-2004), builder, pastor and author, has been described as an ‘unsung hero of the twentieth-century renaissance in Reformed Theology’. Reisinger, a Reformed Baptist pastor, helped lay the foundation for what became the Founders Ministries, which was instrumental under God in returning Southern Baptists to their Reformed beginnings.
