A great one-liner from the book to summarize the disunity between Baxter and Owen:
“The problem is always with the other man.”
The root of their differences began with varying backgrounds, personality differences, and understandings of Scripture. However, these differences made up the proverbial gunpowder that was ignited by their theological convictions regarding, in short, soteriology and church polity.

“The written word destroyed the relationship of two men who had never even met.”
How true it is that the tongue is a fire, and how sobering it is to see that sadly played out in the lives of Owen and Baxter.

Update, Owen and Baxter both would have benefited from some therapy or perhaps a good game of RISK

Good setup so far, smack in the middle of the English Civil War.

Audiobook version. Curious to hear this recounting and what can be learned from it.
