DOWN HOME with CARL

 

My next two books are in the production process and will be off the press in a very few months. One will bear the title Talks to Jews and Non-Jews and will contain some of my messages to a Jewish Forum together with my answers to questions proposed to me. The last half of the book will be devoted to an analysis of the Letter to the Hebrews. The other book will be The Twisted Scriptures, and will be a revised edition of my former volume under that name. It will deal with the tragic misuse of the sacred scriptures to justify our carnal strife and division. We are not yet sure of the selling price of the books but we would like to receive advance orders for them to be billed at the time of delivery. If you are on our permanent list for my books as they come from the press you will receive them automatically with invoice enclosed … We still have copies of One in Christ, the last bound issue of “Mission Messenger.” The cost is only $3.50 for this attractive clothbound volume … Nell and I will send a free copy of my book The Death of the Custodian, to any college student in the world who sends a personal request and furnishes us the name of the school where he is enrolled.

In Colorado Springs, Colorado, I spoke for three nights on the body life of the saints, and we had rewarding sessions. . . On October 15 I became the first male speaker to be invited to address a Women’s Convention at Saint Louis Christian College, with more than 800 sisters in Christ present for the occasion. I must mention in closing that I am scheduled to speak at Emmanuel School of Religion, Milligan College, Tennessee, on March 30, 31. It will be a real pleasure to be again associated with the president, Fred Thompson, whom I knew when he was attending the University of Chicago. —W.
