READERS' EXCHANGE

 

I sure liked the article on mutual ministry (Body Ministry). That is one of the areas in which I think more should be written. It sounds to me that your services there in Denton are getting back to fundamentals. We need congregations that would fit into this type of service, not so much money spent on fine buildings; more Bible study by the members. Then we would be fitted for personal evangelism, and we might not have so much time to fight among ourselves. —W. Earl Fiscus, Riverside, CA

Greetings from a member of the “one man system.” Thank you so much for your lead article in the last issue of your magazine! It came at just the right time. I have just begun a series of sermons on the church, and what you are saying is right in line with the kind of things I’m trying to teach. Thank God for your “fellowship” with us Christian Church folk. —Louie Marsh, Kingman, AZ

My wife and I considered subscribing twice to avoid conflict over who gets the latest issue out of the mailbox. It has strengthened us in the midst of much turmoil. —Pat Howe, Forrest City, AZ

His providence has always guided me through various experiences, and I have been ever thankful to Him and His faithful believers for my life in this country. I have made many good friends in the Church of Christ and in the Christian Church, and even some good Jewish scholars. I shall be still teaching in Emmanuel School of Religion next year with somewhat reduced teaching load. The revised and enlarged edition of my An Elder’s Public Prayers will be published this fall probably, and I plan to be writing another book on the prophets of Israel. — Toyozu W. Nakarai. Milligan College, TN.
