BOOK NOTES

 

We are pleased to announce the publication of a new book entitled Our Heritage In Unity and Fellowship, made up of the writings of Carl Ketcherside and Leroy Garrett. Edited by Cecil Hook, who writes an introduction, it is a substantial book, handsomely printed, of some 360 pages and deals with crucial issues on our history and heritage, along with studies on unity and fellowship. Most of the material is out-of-print and not available elsewhere. We can send you one for $9.95 postpaid.

We have made a special purchase of two titles by Charles Williams, one of the great writers of this century, and can offer them to you at only $3.95 each, postpaid. They are He Came Down From Heaven, which is about God’s transcendent love in Christ, and The Forgiveness of Sins, which tells how we can make forgiveness work.

Sometime back we told you about Grace Thus Far by David H. C. Read, and got more orders than we could fill. We have another fistful of them, the last that will be available, and will send you one for $5.95 postpaid. An insightful writer, Read tells how he found grace since his days as a P.O.W. chaplain.

James S. Woodroof writes that he has received some critical mail over his book The Church in Transition, which calls for change and pleads for unity among Churches of Christ. He says we have been guilty of perpetuating division in the name of sound doctrine. We will send you a copy for $7.95 postpaid.

Another brother that has gotten himself in trouble with his party over a book is Homer Hailey, who takes a more liberal view on divorce and remarriage than his party allows. We have a new supply of The Divorced and Remarried Who Would Come To God at $5.50 postpaid.

Another new title is Celebration of Heritage, which is selected writings of Robert O. Fife. Anyone acquainted with Bob’s seminal mind will welcome this book. He is a resourceful and reliable interpreter of our heritage. You will find some chapters particularly liberating, such as “Our Future - The Only Christians?,” “ Restoration and Grace,” and ‘The Stone-Campbell Movement: Toward A Responsible Future.” Chapters on the nature of the church are also excellent. This is a hardbound, beautiful book of 472 pages but only $19.95 postpaid from us. I highly recommend this book to those who appreciate our heritage.
