Philip Doddridge was the youngest of 20 children. He attended Kingston Grammar School at St. Albans, and a nonconformist academy in Kibworth, Leicestershire, England. Doddridge’s theology can be compared with that of his contemporary, John Gill, whom most scholars believe was a very “high” Calvinist. He became known as one of the “dissenting” clergy. He was pastor of an independent congregation and tutor of a seminary for dissenting ministers at Northampton from 1739 until his death.
