As Christians, are we to stand by and watch the mushroom cloud approach? Where is the future? Where is hope? How does Christ call us to live out His love today? This booklet is written as a call to lift up Christ, to live and love as He taught, and thus bring all men unto Himself. 
Early chapters focus on a statement of the pacifistic message of Christ, how the early church tried to live by His teachings, and how this central message has been largely ignored and forgotten over the centuries. Later chapters include scripturally based study and teaching aids designed to assist the reader in analyzing the deeper meaning of the Christian gospel.

Over the Teacup

Cattell, Catherine

Worship & Devotion

The philosopher asks deeply, "What is it all about?" The poet gives concrete expression to the vision of truth through image, metaphor, and intensified language. In Arthur Roberts we have the Christian philosopher and the Christian poet combined, with the result that his poems both ask deeply and move us powerfully with their concrete vision of truth. "Quaker Prayer," one of the best prayer poems, reflects the strength and beauty of Arthur Roberts's philosopher/poet combination. Old and new readers alike will welcome this edition by a much-respected and widely-read contemporary writer.

Poetry

In the beginning Friends missionaries in the Bundelkhand region of India were all women. They deliberately set out to find a difficult area, untouched with the Gospel, as the place to plant their mission. On April 1, 1896, they moved into backward, benighted Bundelkhand in the grips of famine. 
Over a period of centuries Bundelkhandi people have been sharpened on drastic anvils of poverty, suffering, and intrigue beyond the telling. The marvel is that, once planted in that hostile environment, the Gospel has continued to this day. 
A Century of Planting tells the story of the ministry of the Evangelical Friends Church—Eastern Region in India. It is a testimony of the promises of God to the people who live there and the missionaries who have worked together in the planting and harvesting of the Gospel of Christ.

Walter R. Williams presents a picture of the courage, faith, devotion, and sacrifice that have been displayed throughout the history of Quakerism. Biographical sketches of Quaker leaders challenge the reader to Christian integrity and selfless service. The principles of Quakerism and its influence on society are evident in this carefully researched history of the movement. Paul Anderson, professor at George Fox University, has written an epilogue adding major developments that have taken place within Quakerism since this book was first published in 1962. Anderson also examines issues confronting Quakers entering the twenty-first century.

As a young boy, Ezra DeVol was fascinated by watching his parents perform surgery in Luho, China. But unlike his brother and sister, he remained silent when their mother, just prior to her death, asked, "Who will go?" He later responded to the call of Christ to missionary service.   Ezra and his wife, Frances, worked as a team in surgery and in the home as they served together in China, India, Nepal, and the United States. Their immediate family of two daughters and two sons encountered experiences that caused geographic and emotional separation. The pain and joy in the life of this family offer a challenge and a moving witness to the grace of God.
