EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic pulpit where John Knox, the influential Scottish Protestant reformer, once delivered his fiery sermons in the Parish Church of St Andrews. Dating back to the 16th century, the pulpit stands proudly at the high end of the nave, surrounded by the bare, grim walls of the ancient place of worship. The steep, worn-out steps leading up to the pulpit serve as a testament to the countless sermons that have been preached there over the centuries. John Knox (1505-1572) was a key figure in the Scottish Reformation, advocating for the abolition of the Mass and the establishment of Protestantism in Scotland. His impassioned speeches, delivered with unwavering conviction, inspired many to join the Protestant cause. The Parish Church of St Andrews, with its rich history and deep connections to Scotland's religious past, provided the perfect setting for Knox to spread his message far and wide. The photograph's stark, monochrome tones add to the solemn and reverent atmosphere, transporting us back in time to an era when the power of the spoken word held the ability to shape the course of history. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring impact that John Knox and the Protestant faith have had on Scotland and its people.
