Meet William Guthrie (1620-1665)

The chapter on Guthrie from Beeke’s and Pederson’s Meet the Puritans has been posted (courtesy of Reformation Heritage Books) at Timmy Brister’s Provocations and Pantings:

“Under Guthrie’s twenty-year ministry in Fenwick, the town received a fresh outpouring of the Spirit. The new church was filled. Hundreds of people became regular attenders, were reborn, and grew in the grace and knowledge of Christ Jesus.  Matthew Crawford, who was the minister at Eastwood, said that Guthrie ‘converted and confirmed many thousand souls, and was esteemed the greatest practical preacher in Scotland.’”
