King's Business - 1950-10

THE K t o f J

BUSINESS

Best Seller Publicity I have just laid down the current issue of The King’s Business in which I read the challenging account of the wide ministry of Best Seller Publicity. More than once have I wondered about the background of that silent service that has reached many who never open a Bible or attend any church. Now I know and how glad I am to have learned of another wonderful way in which God is trying to reach hearts. Could I reach 189 West Madison Street, that would be my first objec­ tive and then, to shake hands with you and say, “ God bless you. I shall pray often for you.” I have been in the Presbyterian Home Hospital for seventeen months, not to leave it again, until the call to go Home comes. I have been enriched today be­ cause of what I have learned of your work for God. In these days of uncer­ tainty and fear for many, His Word is needed to be broadcast as never before. The enclosed will not go far, but I am glad to share in this widespread service. I am glad that your face was shown us! I was glad to see Mrs. Ar- msur’s name. ELIZABETH STALKER Evanston, III. P.S. I am not sitting up. Having read the article in the August issue of The King’s Business, and then having seen your advertisement in the September issue, I would like to re­ ceive literature describing your work. There is truly a great need for the Word to be publicly displayed here and in this area. Are the Posters and Bill­ boards available in the Spanish lan­ guage? I have a particular interest in that field since I am engaged in mis­ sionary work here among the Spanish speaking people. I believe that many wbuld be reached through this type of ministry. May the Lord abundantly bless your endeavors in every way. REV. ROBERT L. ANDREWS Douglas, Ariz. I am much interested in posters that I might use here in my home town. Please send information as to how I may obtain some of these, cost of them, how often they should be changed, etc. Thank you very much. GENEVIEVE CRAIG Wayne, Nebr. I want to praise the Lord for the wonderful way He is using Best Seller in spreading the gospel. I will ask my church and I will pray for your work. I have noticed the pos­ ters in Los Angeles, and the Lord will­ ing I am praying that we may have them in Sun Valley. The Lord bless you. JOHN TAYLOR
