Biography

Benson Howard Roberts was the son of Rev. Benjamin Titus Roberts. From 1860 to his death in 1893 Benjamin Roberts edited and published The Earnest Christian, an independent family magazine similar in character but, some would say, journalistically superior to the more widely known Guide to Holiness.

Following the death of the Benjamin in 1893, Benson compiled from his father's editorial writings, which had extended across a third of a century, a book with the title Holiness Teachings.
