If you preorder a digital download of this film by midnight (Central Time) tonight (Friday, April 11, 2014), you will be entered to win Lloyd-Jones’s complete 14-volume commentary set on Romans (which retails for $369).
Here is some more information on the project from Jonathan Catherwood, president of the MLJ Trust and grandson of the Doctor.
Dear Friend,
We wanted to let you know about some exciting news. A Christian filmmaker called Matthew Robinson is making a documentary on Martyn Lloyd-Jones entitled “Logic on Fire: the Life and Legacy of Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones.” The website for the film is http://www.logiconfire.org. News of the film was announced at this week’s “Together for the Gospel” gathering in Kentucky, right before a panel on the influence of Martyn Lloyd-Jones on the evangelical community.
Matt and his team have already started filming interviews with Christian leaders such as Iain Murray (who wrote the authorized two volume biography on Dr. Lloyd-Jones [see here]), and will in Britain later this month interviewing members of the Lloyd-Jones family and visiting key locations in the life of Dr. Lloyd-Jones in England and Wales. The film is due for release in 2015.
We also wanted to let you know that while we are very excited about this project, and have greatly appreciated the care that Matt has taken to make sure that Dr. Lloyd-Jones’s descendants and the Trust are comfortable with his approach, this is an independent venture. The MLJ Trust is not funding the film and will not be receiving any proceeds from it. Our mission is to make the 1,600 audio sermons of Dr. Lloyd-Jones available at MLJTrust.org for anyone who wants them at no cost, and that is where all our efforts and resources are focused. Our hope is that interest in the film will lead to interest in the Gospel message contained in all of Dr. Lloyd-Jones’s sermons.
Every blessing to you,
Jonathan Catherwood
President; MLJ Trust
