Miller served as the Professor of Ecclesiastical and Church Government at Princeton and in many ways narrated a theology of Presbyterianism for the era. He wrote a biography of John Rodgers, Essays on the Office of the Ruling Elder, The Primitive and Apostolical Order of the Church of Christ Vindicated, Presbyterianism - Primitive and Apostolical, The Utility and Importance of the Creeds and Confessions, etc.,
