John Williamson Nevin (1803–1886) was an American theologian and professor. He studied at Princeton University and was a professor of biblical literature at Western Theological Seminary in Allegheny, Pennsylvania and an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church. Well-versed in German, he studied contemporary German theologians, and eventually converted to the German Reformed Church, accepting a position at the Church’s seminary in Mercersburg, PA. He and his colleagues developed a conservative doctrinal position eventually labeled the “Mercersburg Theology.”

    Attention Logos Editors - The About the author, Samuel Miller, actually has the thumbnail bio of John Williamson Nevin, one of the architects of Mercersburg. Nevin is a subject of the book, not the author. Also, that is a terrible choice of words about Nevin: "converted to the German Reformed Church." His credentials were accepted as a minister in good standing from one Church to another that recognized each other. There was no "conversion," as if from Islam or unbelief, to Christian faith. An unfortunately pejorative choice of words.
