Résumé
David Pettett's treatment of Marsden shows us what was at the heart of his preaching. The focus on Samuel Marsden as an evangelical preacher in the early colony helps to redress some of the negativity about the man by revealing his theological and pastoral concern for those he addressed. Everyone interested in the influence of evangelicalism in the early colony will benefit from reading this account.
Colin Bale Until now biographers of Samuel Marsden have ignored the main source of evidence about him - his sermons. David Pettett has made a close study of all his sermons and transcribed them for the benefit of us all. In this valuable and concise account surprising new light is thrown on the most controversial of Christ's ambassadors in Australian history. Marsden will continue to have his critics, but now his own motivation will be better understood, his pastor's heart for his people appreciated, and his strategic approach to mission admired.
How David Pettett uses the sermons will also be admired, especially his reconstruction of his most famous sermon, that which he preached at the Bay of Islands on Christmas Day 1814. Associate Professor Stuart Piggin Though a much-maligned figure in Australian history, Samuel Marsden had at least been seen more positively in New Zealand. But, as this engaging short study shows, Marsden was the same man, driven by the gospel imperative to attempt much, which he did with all his might but with inevitable human flaws and weaknesses. Particularly marked in David Pettett's approach is his meticulous research, courageous tackling of very contentious issues, the careful contextualization of his subject and his balanced judgements. His deep knowledge of, and careful analysis of Marsden's sermons give great richness to his recreation of Marsden's spiritual and moral universe.
Professor Malcolm Prentis, Honorary Professor of Australian Catholic University I'm grateful to David Pettett for his deep insight into Marsden, as a man, a passionate missionary and a controversial magistrate in his own times, times that were vastly different to our own. Every insight is built on the original documents and especially Marsden's sermons. This is a beautifully balanced account of Marsden, his faults and his great achievements.
