By the time of his death in 1981, Martyn Lloyd-Jones had occupied one of the most influential pulpits in London for thirty years, and his ministry had changed the spiritual direction of thousands across the world.
Those who heard and respected him included C S Lewis and the eminent Cambridge historian, G M Trevelyan. Hundreds of students and young pastors found their minds and ministries moulded by his powerful preaching and persuasive wisdom. The largest halls in the land could not hold the people who gathered to hear him.
