Torrance, is a retired Church of Scotland minister and part of the well-known Torrance family of theologians and Christian ministers. He is the youngest of six children to Rev Thomas Torrance (1871-1959) and Annie Elizabeth Torrance (1883-1980), both missionaries to Chengdu, Sichuan of West China. Like his two brothers, Thomas F.
