Today is Isaac Backus’ 301st birthday. Though he is dead, he still speaks! These are two key works advocating for the Baptist cause and religious liberty. Thankful for the resources we have @SBTSLibrary. Lord willing, I look forward to devoting time to studying this great man.

I will forever be grateful for @lbstrick28 and Dr. Driver hiring me to work @SBTSLibrary 3.5 years ago. It is hard to put into words how much the Lord has used this place in my life. Today is Laura's last day as the Associate Librarian. We are going to miss her a lot around here!

Basil Manly Jr. would have been 199 today. His most important publication was "The Bible Doctrine of Inspiration Explained and Vindicated." This work served as the unofficial response of SBTS to the Toy controversy over the nature of the Scriptures.
