    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.
