J.I. Packer

J. I. Packer was a twentieth- and early twenty-first-century English evangelical Anglican theologian, widely recognised as a key voice in conservative Reformed theology.

Packer’s core contribution lies in his lucid theological writing, which helped generations of evangelicals rediscover the riches of classical Reformed doctrine. Through books on knowing God, the authority of Scripture, holiness, and the Christian life, as well as his involvement in Bible translation and confessional renewal, he worked to anchor churches in historic orthodoxy. Though not primarily a commentator, his expository and doctrinal works have deeply shaped how preachers and lay people approach the Bible.

He is remembered for his combination of intellectual weight, deep piety, and pastoral concern. His writing is patient, careful, and rich in spiritual counsel, inviting Christians to think hard and worship gladly.

Important works include books on knowing God, the character of Scripture, and the Puritans, all written to strengthen confidence in historic evangelical faith.
