I'm Gonna Bury You
by Gene NeillMost people look for God in churches; temples, synagogues or in schools of religion. Gene Neill found God in a lonely prison cell! Many people seek for truth in books, in philosophies, and in schools of learning. But Gene discovered the ultimate truth of all life on the floor of a prison cell. Truth incarnate in the person of the risen Lord Jesus Christ! If Gene Neill -- the successful "Perry Mason of South Florida" -- had been a student of the Bible, he could have discovered from the writings of Solomon that happiness does not come by wealth, power, eating, drinking, or permissiveness in conduct. But Gene was an atheist. Not a Bible scholar. And though his adventure into crime was of short duration -- only a few short years -- the penalty was a long prison sentence! Fifty years!
Henrietta Mears and how she did it!
by Ethel May Baldwin David V. Benson"WE ARE TOO PRONE to forget how many-sided were her strenuous labors during the more than thirty years she spent in alifornia: (1) She was the inspiration and genius of the great Sunday School of the First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood, with its some 6000 members! (2) In that Sunday School she herself for many years taught its now famous college class--and administration and teaching gifts do not very often go together. (3) She was the founder of the Gospel Light Publications, whose literature has done so much to save many Sunday Schools from compromising or destructively liberal Sunday School study books. (4) She saw come into reality her vision of a Bible conference center at Forest Home, where, I think it can be said, a greater work has been done each year in the College Briefing Conference than in any similar gathering since those conferences held at Northfield by Dwight L. Moody. (5) Dr. Mears' own messages at conventions across our entire land brought inspiration and a deeper understanding of the essential task of a Sunday School teacher to unnumbered multitudes."
