Hello at Banner of Truth. The podcast about Cunningham was very informative and useful in that it brought a perspective on his writings that I had not remembered or even knew. As a student of London (Theological) Seminary in the mid-1980s Cunningham’s Historical Theology was required reading - and I read it! However, it was quite a tough read (not only because of the untranslated foreign language quotation). I have recently been thinking whether to re-read this work and the podcast certainly stimulates the thought that I should - even at 77! With a prayerful desire that our gracious Lord will continue to bless and encourage the on-going ministry of BofT, Michael Newtownards, Northern Ireland
