Round the Sphere Again: Final Letters

I love it that these two came across my feed reader on the same day.

John Owen
“On August 22, 1683, at his home in Ealing (a suburb west of London), the great theologian John Owen dictated his last surviving letter to his longtime friend, Charles Fleetwood…” (Justin Taylor).

A Godly Grandfather
“Recently my wife’s parents moved out of their home of many years. In sorting through their files, they came across the typewritten, hand-edited letter in the picture. This letter was from Miriam’s grandfather, Lubertus “Bert” Hoeksema, who intended them to read it on the day of his funeral” (Gentle Reformation).
