PROGRAM SPRING BIBLE LECTURESHIP PEPPER'DINE COLLEGE MARCH 16-22, 1963 WELCOME, LECTURESHIP VISITORS The entire Pepperdine College community extends to you a hearty welcome to the 20th annual Pepperdine Spring Bible Lectureship. We believe this will be the greatest program of the Lectureship's tradition- honored history. We have anticipated your arrival and sincerely hope that you will enjoy your stay with us. Please call upon us for any assistance we can render. PLEASE REGISTER We urge you to visit the registration tables located in the lobby of the College auditorium. The Associated Women for Pepperdine are serving as official registrars this year and are anxious to meet and greet you. Pick up a lapel identification card and leave us your name and address. We need a record of your visit and you will want to receive information regarding future Pepperdine lecture series. A PROGRAM FOR YOU From the Saturday evening Kick-Off Dinner to the Sports Arena Climax, our program has been planned with you in mind. Budget your hours wisely; attend every class, lecture, and panel which your sched- ule will allow. Take notes, ask questions; make suggestions. Let's take advantage of every ounce of spiritual energy which this week provides. Our theme, "Christ, Our Contemporary," is especially vital and timely. It is designed to present the Lord as an ever-present source of power in the lives of Christian people. The following little poem by W. C. Braithwaite catches a portion of the spirit which we anticipate for this historic week. William S. Banowsky, Lectureship Director WELCOME FROM TRUSTEES The Board of Trustees of Pepperdine College extends its warmest welcome to all of our visitors who have come to participate in the 20th annual Bible Lectureship. Deep and abiding faith in God has been the corner stone of all successful societies and is the bulwark of our spir- itual experience. The Board is basically interested in the expansion of this Bible-centered faith and in programs which help to achieve this purpose. These annual lectureships, which bring together thousands of inter- ested and dedicated followers of our Lord, have an impact upon our fellow Christians and upon our total society. You are always welcome on the campus of Pepperdine. Donald V. Miller, Chairman, Sierra Madre H. E. Acklin, Dallas, Texas Mrs. George Pepperdine, Los Angeles W.

Yearwood, Nashville, Tenn. Lester Lawhorn, Temple, Texas "CHRIST OUR CONTEMPORARY"* Christ's Spirit taketh breath again Within the lives of holy men. Each changing age beholds afresh Its word of God in human flesh. Amid the meek of earth, whose ear Pure wisdom maketh quick to hear, Who know the founts of good and ill, and live in the eternal will. Sharing themselves and all their good In universal brotherhood; In whose sweet lives we still may see The One who walked in Galilee, And preaching through the human page Christ's living gospel to our age. By W. C. Braithwaite, 1862-1922, Masterpieces of Religious Verse, edited by James Dalton Morrison. LECTURESHIP LEADERS Howard A. White William S.

  • Restoration Quarterly and Mission
    NEW JOURNALS FOR THE SIXTIES: RESTORATION QUARTERLY AND MISSION Thomas H. Olbricht The 1960's witnessed the emergence of two new journals for dissemination among members of the Churches of Christ, representing new concerns and directions, first the Restoration Quarterly, and then Mission. The Gospel Advocate and The Firm Foundation at that time clearly exhibited traditional journalistic approaches of a hundred years or more. These journals printed short articles on controversial matters among the churches, delineating a consensus perspective, and also inspirational pieces and reports from preachers, mostly regarding gospel meetings. The Gospel Advocate was more traditional than the Firm Foundation, the latter under a new editor after 1955, Reuel Lemmons, who was willing for less conventional views to at least surface. He himself encouraged a degree of openness, forbearance and diversity. In addition, The Christian Chronicle, the Twentieth Century Christian, and Power for Today were recognized and circulated widely. The Christian Chronicle was a major source of news among us, especially in regard to expanding missions. The latter two focused upon current inspirational and spiritual matters especially for college age persons. The Restoration Quarterly and Mission were new in kind, at least among members of the Churches of Christ. New concerns and foci are always a threat to those content with the traditional and conventional, as are most of us. It comes as no surprise then that both of these new journals met with considerable resistance from contemporary church leadership. The control of channels of communication is particularly guarded by leaders who hold their position through aggressiveness and charisma, rather than through institutional, bureaucratic office.

Eleventh Printing 1962 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO MY FATHER, BATSELL BAXTER WHO HAS SPENT MOST OF HIS LIFETIME IN HELPING TO TRAIN YOUNG PEOPLE TO BE MORE USEFUL IN THE SERVICE OF THE MASTER Preface FOR SEVERAL YEARS I have been aware of a pressing need for a textbook on religious speaking for use in Men's Training Classes among the churches. From time to time friends in widely scattered sections of the country have written to ask if there is such a book. Although there are scores of excellent textbooks, I know of none especially written to help train Christian speakers. Within recent years it has become more and more apparent to me that the Lord needs more trained workers. The progress of Christianity depends, first of all, on its message. Next, it de- pends on the number and quality of its trained workers. God's messengers--whether they be preachers, teachers, elders, dea- cons, or others--need to be trained.

  • The Blessings of Business
    THE BLESSINGS OF BUSINESS: CORPORATE AMERICA AND CONSERVATIVE EVANGELICALISM IN THE SUNBELT AGE, 1945-2000 by DARREN ELLIOTT GREM (Under the Direction of James C. Cobb) ABSTRACT Scholars and pundits have often cast postwar conservative evangelicalism as a kind of doppelganger of liberal activism, as a grassroots expression of populist will against the social revolutions of the 1960s. In contrast, this dissertation argues that the rise of culturally and politically-engaged, conservative evangelicals first began in the midst of the New Deal state in the 1940s and 1950s and depended heavily on another will—the will of corporations and corporate actors, especially those working out of the economic and social context of an emergent, postwar “Sunbelt.” There, in the midst of a burgeoning regional economy that stretched from Georgia to Texas to California, a postwar generation of business leaders worked with evangelical leaders to resurrect the cause of religious, economic, and political conservatism in the midst of the early Cold War. In the 1960s and 1970s, as the Culture Wars heated up, they brought their faith, free market policies, and “family values” to the forefront of American public life. The blessings of business were everywhere—in the ministries of celebrity evangelists like Billy Graham and lay evangelists like R.G. LeTourneau; in corporate-funded missionary groups like Young Life, Campus Crusade for Christ, The Navigators, and Wycliffe Bible Translators; in independent evangelical colleges strung throughout the South and West; in everyday operations at thousands of small businesses and dozens of mass-market corporations; in evangelical-inspired “biblical success” books and in a cottage industry of evangelical-led entrepreneurial seminars; in evangelical culture industries and megachurches; and, most especially, in the careers of evangelical political leaders from Jerry Falwell to George W.
