How J.I. Packer Changed Anglicanism in Canada Forever
J.I. Packer was one of the most influential evangelical theologians of the 20th century, but his impact on Anglicanism—especially in Canada—was profound. From his decades at @regentcollege to his leadership in the Anglican Essentials movement and the formation of the @AnglicanDioceseofCanada (formerly ANIC), Packer shaped the course of orthodox Anglicanism in the face of growing liberalism. In this video, we explore his life, legacy, and the lasting mark he left on the church.
