Baptist Noel (1798-1873) has been described by the American
Evangelical Anglican historian Grayson Carter as a towering figure
in nineteenth-century Evangelicalism, but he has been written out
of its story because he was a saintly rebel who counted a good
conscience more valuable than a good standing. This ultimately led
him to abandon his glittering Anglican career and aristocratic
family to become a Baptist minister. A Rebel Saint is a
comprehensive study of Noel's life, work and thought, correcting
the neglect of his remarkable Anglican and Baptist ministries and
his many years of prominence in Evangelical life. Philip Hill ably
illustrates his influence on issues including the Irvingite
controversy, the opposition to the Tractarian movement, and
Evangelical ecumenism, and explains his centrality in the
establishment of the Evangelical Alliance and the London City
Mission. Scholars of Evangelical history will greatly value this
account of a pivotal figure, while all will be inspired by his
story of sacrifice of fame and fortune for the sake of obeying
religious conscience.
