READERS' EXCHANGE

 

As soon as I got home from the post office with it I started reading the Stone-Campbell Movement and I like what I read. We are having extreme hot days this July, also nights, which is unusual for Florida. The nights are usually cool. --- Robert Knowlton, Cortez, FL.

Send me another copy of The Stone-Campbell Movement. I have given away five copies and I plan to keep this one, so please autograph it. --- Janie Catron, Corbin, KY.

I don’t think its my imagination that your history book and the Restoration Review are changing some of our preachers’ attitudes. --- Darrell Bruce, Owensville, IL.

The Stone-Campbell Movement is great. I am going through it the third time. --- Jerry Cook, Rifle, CO.

Just a few lines of appreciation of your history book. I am overwhelmed and excited about the book, like a child with a toy. Thank you. It is written in simple English so that a man like me, a non-English speaking Christian, can read it easily. The part about brother Ketcherside was thrilling and the section about the pre-millennial segment was warmly and fairly written. --- Moto Nomura, Tokyo, Japan

I would like to thank you and Ouida for all the work that went into your book The Stone-Campbell Movement, and I want to recommend it to all the readers of your journal. It helps us to see where we stand in the flow of reformation history and gives guidance to where we could go from here. I appreciate your treatment of the leaders of the Movement with respect and dignity, acknowledging their dedication to God and His word, yet without apology showing how they, as have we all come short of living out the greatest commandment of loving God and our neighbor. --- Don Morris, Nashville, TN.

(These testimonials may encourage you to give this history book a try, even if you do not easily take to history. The book is temporarily out of print - sold out! - but the publisher expects the second printing by mid-September. If you send us a check for 21.95, we’ll pay the postage and put it in the mail to you the same day, if indeed the second printing is on time. --- Ed.)

I have missed Carl Ketcherside’s Mission Messenger and am enjoying Restoration Review. I am often fearful to let go of my old prejudices. Trying to sort through them to keep God’s truth and dump the rest is exhilarating but scarey. I often struggle to remember that I’m not alone nor powerless in my quest. God really does honor our seeking Him with diligence and faith. Whew! ---Kelia Ballou, Houston, Tx.

We’re living in exciting times for the church and our faith should be made stronger by the many positive things happening for the cause of Christ today. --- Tom Johnson, Austin, TX.
