For more than a half-century, Ted Byfield was one of Canada's most significant public Christians, and his life's work included the founding of a religious order, the formation of several Christian boarding schools for boys, a series of influential newsmagazines, laying the groundwork for a political movement, writing books, and serving as editor on a magnificent 12-volume history of Christianity, The Their First Two Thousand Years . He gave voice to Western alienation when few others would, and helped create the consensus that resulted in the first Conservative majority government in decades.

The life and times of a great man! It's truly amazing how God used Ted Byfield to change the future of this country. I can only pray we will see a new generation follow in his footsteps.
