2010 Reprint of 1961 Edition. Arthur Walkington Pink (1886-1952) was an English Christian evangelist and Biblical scholar known for his staunchly Calvinist and Puritan-like teachings. After Pink’s death, his works were republished by a number of publishing houses and reached a much wider audience as a result. Biographer Iain Murray observes of Pink, the widespread circulation of his writings after his death made him one of the most influential evangelical authors in the second half of the twentieth century. His writing sparked a revival of expository preaching and focused readers’ hearts on biblical living.
