The Role Of The Father In The Home?
Approaching this Father’s Day, from the archives is this article by Irvin Lee appearing in the magazine in May of 1984. I know many Bible students will appreciate his thoughts on this subject. His dedication to the Scriptures and years of experience preaching the Gospel insure that a small investment of your time will be well worth while.

As part of a series in 1965 Cecil Willis wrote an article reviewing a book entitled THE MIRROR OF A MOVEMENT, subtitled “Churches of Christ as seen through the Abilene Christian College Lectureship.” Although lengthy, this is an excellent piece reviewing the progression of modernism at Abilene Christian.

Some readers had charged they could not use the Gospel Advocate as a teaching tool with new converts because it contained these controversies.

A good resource for dealing with the inevitable issues that will arise between brethren..
