King's Business - 1970-09

The selection of material is very good. The style is very readable. The interpretations of church his­ tory are valid. The theological ap­ proach is refreshingly conservative. The author has provided a fu r­ ther valuable contribution in a rather extensive annotated bibliog­ raphy, section by section, for the student wishing to make a further serious study. I am delighted with the book be­ cause I can place it in the hands of general readers who want to know something about church history. This is the best up-to-date work I know for the general reader.— 336 pages; cloth; Moody Press, Chica­ go, 1969; $4.95. — Reviewed by Dr. J. H. Christian. JIM DUNLAP AND THE WINGLESS PLANE, . . .

Do you realize that in God’s pro­ gram for the world, you are indis­ pensable? Not one person who is a Christian can afford himself the luxury of believing that he does not matter, for as Don Hillis so ably points out in this little book, the Holy Spirit has chosen to make Himself dependent upon God’s peo­ ple to accomplish His work. Be­ cause this is so, each person must be challenged to a new responsive­ ness and obedience to the Spirit of God. The author discusses some of the “ how’s” and “ why’s” of this in extremely practical terms which makes this a valuable book for all who desire to understand what con­ stitutes the well-motivated or com­ mitted Christian. — 95 pages; pa­ per; Christian Literature Crusade, Fort Washington, Pa., 1969; $1.25. — Reviewed by Shirley Keyes.
