It's a very good book in a lot of ways. They don't advocate EP and they seem to suggest in places that it's a peculiar Scots practice. Darryl and John are both friends and I recommend this book but I disagree with their reading of the history of worship. In my survey (in Recovering - Nov 08, Dv) I class this work with the conservatives who respect the RPW but who do not call for conformity to it's historic understanding and practice.

No, John and Darryl are not "Nevintes." DG's book on Nevin is quite good, though he may have made Nevin a little bit more of a confessionalist than he was. Hart is not advocating the "Mercersburg Theology," whatever the pro-FV boys might want us to think.
