A Cloud of Witnesses

With the insight of a theologian, the heart of a pastor, and the clarity of a preacher, Herman Hoeksema expounds key sections of the epistle to the Hebrews. The glory and work of the author and finisher of our faith, Jesus Christ; the biblical saints of old and their victories by faith; the beauty of the prize at the end of the race that is set before us-these are the main themes of A Cloud of Witnesses, a book that will encourage readers as they press on in their pilgrimage toward that city whose builder and maker is God himself.



Herman Hoeksema (1886-1965) was ordained into the ministry in the Christian Reformed Churches in 1915. He is considered one of the founding "fathers" of the Protestant Reformed Churches in America. He taught in the Seminary of the Protestant Reformed Churches from its founding and until his retirement in 1964.





What others are saying about this book:

"Often it is the case that we read the theology of a great churchman like Herman Hoeksema and so call him a theologian. But in reading his sermons, we are reminded that his first job and calling was to preach. Students of theology might be better served reading more sermons than works on theology. Thankfully, in this volume the reader gets both." -Douglas J. Douma, pastor of First Presbyterian Church (Unionville, NY), author, and founder of Sola Appalachian Christian Retreat
