NOTABLE QUOTES
THE GOD OF THE
CHRISTIAN is not merely
the God who IS: He is
even more the God who
DOES; and 'vire, His
creatures, find meaning
and purpose In our lives
as we accept our respec-
tive parts In His ac-
tivities. To deny or
ignore this is not merely
Irreligious; It discloses a
darkness of mind. (Rev.
John W. Shenton)
