There is a wealth of material from great preachers of the past that sit on bookshelves — unused and unread.  Like many of the others, this one deserves your attention!

The whole theme of this lectureship, back when it was still Harding College, was “The New Life in Christ.  And as you’ll see from the speakers and the topics, it was a good one!

We won’t say anything else about it, as we believe the contents speak for themselves.  The link to read it online or to download it to your electronic device of choice is at the bottom.
