CHRISTIAN HERITAGE

What is Christian heritage? Why is it important?

Listen to this interview with Ranald Macaulay (Francis Schaeffer's son-in-law) on the 'Men@Work' program, with Nick Battle (Original Broadcast: May 4th 2013, 8pm.)

Ranald describes the work at Christian Heritage and the Cambridge Apologetics Apprenticeship (cambridgeapologetics.org), and goes on to discuss his own conversion, a bit about Francis and Edith Schaeffer, L'Abri, and meeting Susan (one of Schaeffer's daughters) who later became his wife.

LEGACY AND LOSS

Early this year we had the chance to sit down with Ellis Potter for an interview to be included in our Francis Schaeffer Legacy Project series. Yet since that time there has been much change in the life of Ellis Potter. Just after Edith Schaeffer's passing on Saturday, Easter weekend, Ellis' wife Mary passed away the following Tuesday. So it is with a heavy heart that we release this video, knowing that the life of a friend has been greatly impacted. We wish to share our most sincere condolences to Ellis and his family. Please join with us in prayer for Ellis and pray additionally for ministry and health concerns in this time.

For us, this news is yet another reminder of the brevity of life and the importance of what we feel called to do here at francisschaefferstudies.org. One of the motivations behind the Legacy Project is to capture something of "the story" before it is lost in the present life to the passing of a generation. It is our duty in a "abnormal world," as Schaeffer called it, to preserve something of the memories of what God has done in the lives of real people. Not for their sake alone, but for the sake of the Gospel. Yet further, not to merely preserve, but to imitate what God has wrought.
  • Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us. (Philippians 3:17 ESV)


Watch for additional video of Ellis' lecture at The Culture House on 3 Theories of Everything. Also be watching for an earlier filmed Legacy Project video, to be released in the near future, in which we interview author and photographer, Sylvester Jacobs.
