A.W. Tozer (1897 – 1963) Although A.W. Tozer‘s (1897 – 1963) life-time has significant overlap with Thomas Raymond Kelly (1893 – 1941) and Thomas Merton’s (1915 – 1968), in some ways they couldn’t be more separate by tradition in 20th Century Christianity — to compare visit Receiving from the Christian Devotional Classics: Thomas Merton & the Desert Fathers and A Testament of Devotion.
