Turretin and the Scholars

What comes to your mind when you hear the word "scholar"? An old man buried behind a pile of old books? Join Emma, Christian, and Sean as they continue their trip through church history and meet some 17th-century scholars who have helped us understand what we believe and why. You'll be surprised by what they discover as they interview  Dr. Nick Cumming, associate professor of Humanities at Pepperdine University in Malibu, California, and author of the book Francis Turretin and the Reformed Tradition.
