Pub. Co., Grand Rapids, Mich. Cloth. Price $1.50. The Comfort of God By Harold J . Ockenga Expository preaching is rare these days, although it is still the highest type of preaching because it centers in the Word. In this volume there are scholarly expositions of portions of 2 Corinthians, delivered first as evan­ gelistic sermons by the pastor of Park Street Church, Boston. Studying them, one is aware that “ as always, Dr. Ockenga combines skill in analysis and exposition with clarity of expression and spiritual Warmth.” There is also a timeliness about the discussion, for the reader who faces bereavement, worry, fear, or loss will find that the Apostle Paul likewise knew the same experiences? and through them found “ the comfort of God,” as every man may find it if he will. 287 pages. Fleming Revel! Co., New York, N. Y. Cloth. Price $2.50. Shilling Shield By Ken Anderson | In this story of World War II—parti­ cularly its North African campaign-— Private Bill Ankney is not only a soldier, but also an effective witness fpr Jesus Christ. His l e t t e r s from Nancy, the girl from “the farm next door” in Iowa, his friendship with Chaplain Dobson whose nine challeng­ ing words in Bill’s Testament revolu­ tionized his thinking, his conversa­ tions with “Tank,” and his act of heroism toward rough Art Stock that won for him the Distinguished Service Cross, are woven into an exciting drama that honors the Word of God.
