LITERATURE TABLE [Continued from Page 37]
Increasing Church Attendance By Albert H. Gage
96 pages. The Moody Press, Chicago 10, 111. Paper. Price 35 cents.
The author proves that when church attendance is increased, benefits ac crue to the nation, to the community, and to the individual life. One chap ter is devoted io the pastor’s part in this work, and one to that of the lay man. There is no avoidance of the necessity, for honest effort to “stop the leaks,” by means of prayer, co operation, and hard work. At the close of each chapter, there are ques tions for further study. 130 pages. Zondervan Pub. House, Grand Rapids, Mich. Cloth. Price $1.25. Waithera By Anne Woodley Waithera’s parents were Christians, but not entirely separated from the heathen customs of their African tribe. Waithera was about to become a woman and had not made a stand for Christ, so she went through the heathen ceremony and married Nguni, who had professed Christ, but was not strohg enough to break away from heathenism. The story .of their path downward, including witch doctors, infant murder, polygamy and hate, is a graphic illustration of the hold that heathenism has on its people. The hunger in Waithera’s heart for the “ affair of God” finally led to peace.
■compel interest, and so uniquely phrased are they that the book is as fascinating as a novel. Who can get through the chapter, “While the Fire Burned,” without tears of personal contrition, without a tremendous long ing to pay the price of revival in this our day? 300 pages. Zondervan Pub. House, Grand Rapids, Mich. Cloth. Price $1.50. It is Time By Vance Havner Not intended as an interpretation of prophecy, this forceful little book is, nevertheless, a Scriptural setting forth of present and future trends. The author faces the question, “ Is the world growing better or worse?” and shows that it is growing both better and worse. So far as Christians are concerned, many of them are turning back to the Bible, are accepting its truths, and are witnessing for Christ. This is a gratifying change. On the other hand, in fulfillment of God’s Word, evil men and conditions áre growing more and more prominent, and may be expected to continue thüs until Christ “ returns personally and suddenly to rule and reign.” 95 pages. Revell Co., New York, N. Y. Cloth. Price $1.25.
