Wisdom In maintaining faithfulness to the cause of Christ in training preachers and working with the extension classes to stabilize congregations, it is important that those helping to make decisions have a commitment to the truth of the gospel. We believe that brother Littleton, due to his education and experience in the local congregation in Auburndale, has the background and experience that will enable him to offer wisdom in any and all decisions that must be made by the Board. In addition to his religious training and experience, Greg brings to the Board experience and wisdom in financial matters that should enable him to provide insight and judgments that must be made for the continuing stability of the Florida School of Preaching. Reputable people who know Greg and his family hold them in high esteem. The Florida School of Preaching is fortunate to have Greg Littleton as a part of its leadership. We are indeed grateful for his willingness to sacrifice his time and energy to help us direct the Florida School of Preaching. ■

Lectureship The time for the Florida School of Preaching Lectureship is drawing near. For a complete schedule click here. The religious world is a fragmented society. Spokesmen for the multiplicity of “religious fellowships” are speaking conflicting views that make fellowship impossible. Some, even in the body of Christ contribute to the confusion. It is not easy to provide wisdom to a fractured brotherhood. We must be willing to do all we can to heal the wounds without compromising religious principles and truth. We realize that it is impossible to make judgments that will please everyone. It is hoped that this volume will contribute to unity and not diversity. Do You Understand Fellowship?
