This work contributes to an understanding of Van Til and his apologetic insights by placing him within the context of twentieth century developments in North American Reformed theology, including the formation of Westminster Seminary and the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, the rise of neo-evangelicalism, and American reception of Karl Barth.
In this book Muether has extensively researched Van Til's work from published sources, unpublished archives, personal interviews. He also looks at Van Til’s apologetic contribution in light of his commitment to the Word and the church.
