"description": "John Owen (1616 - 1683)\r\nListen to freely downloadable audio sermons by the speaker John Owen in mp3 format. John Owen, called the \u201cprince of the English divines,\u201d \u201cthe leading figure among the Congregationalist divines,\u201d \u201ca genius with learning second only to Calvin\u2019s,\u201d and \u201cindisputably the leading proponent of high Calvinism in England in the late seventeenth century,\u201d was born in Stadham (Stadhampton), near Oxford. He was the second son of Henry Owen, the local Puritan vicar. Owen showed godly and scholarly tendencies at an early age. He entered Queen\u2019s College, Oxford, at the age of twelve and studied the classics, mathematics, philosophy, theology, Hebrew, and rabbinical writings. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1632 and a Master of Arts degree in 1635. Throughout his teen years, young Owen studied eighteen to twenty hours per day.\r\nPressured to accept Archbishop Laud\u2019s new statutes, Owen left Oxford in 1637. He became a private chaplain and tutor, first for Sir William Dormer of Ascot, then for John Lord Lovelace at Hurley, Berkshire. He worked for Lovelace until 1643. Those years of chaplaincy afforded him much time for study, which God richly blessed. At the age of twenty-six, Owen began a forty-one year writing span that produced more than eighty works. Many of those would become classics and be greatly used by God.",
