Lets Admit that Calvinists Love Festschrifts

No sooner had I begun reading Richard Gaffin's festschrift Resurrection and Eschatology than I found out that John Frame had a festschrift titled Speaking the Truth in Love released on October 5th of last year. Weighing in at 1200 pages, this is the mother of all festschrifts! Then, I discovered that a couple of years ago, there was a festschrift in honor of Meredith Kline called Creator, Redeemer, Consummator

Moving on, of course, we have the new volume of essays released in honor of John Piper, For the Fame of God's Name. And then, within a week, a new volume in honor of Robert Godfrey was announced, and it is entititled Always Reformed.


I don't see any festschrifts in honor of Greg Boyd anywhere!

  1. Don't forget about the wonderful festschrift for James Montgomery Boice "Give Praise to God: A Vision for Reforming Worship" it is one of the best books I've seen on the reformed view of worship from such a broad ecumenical perspective.
