EVANGELISM AND UNITY (again)

Gary Holloway

Back in the October ChristiaNet, I wrote of the intimate connection Jesus made among prayer, unity and evangelism: "I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one-as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me" (John 17:21).

Mission...India

Education initiatives were discussed at the World Convention board meeting in April. We continue to share samples of Stone-Campbell mission work in India. In this issue, we are linking to two missions of our Church of Christ sisters and brothers. Click on either photo for more information.

CHENNAI - The story of Phineas, a zealous believer who turned away God's wrath against the Israelites in the Old Testament book of Numbers, is one of the articles in "Pattern to the Believers," a magazine for young Indian Christians.

The magazine, produced quarterly, also features Bible quizzes and a daily Bible reading plan. Articles are written in English and the Tamil and Telugu languages. D. Pradabadathan, minister for the Erukkanchery Church of Christ in Chennai, edits the magazine and seeks support for its publication.

"Kindly pray for this magazine to be continued," said Indian evangelist David Martin. "Most of the youth in Churches of Christ are motivated by it."

Daily Disciple

-Gary Holloway

"O the quiet holy joy of the silent hour, when the soul is alone with God! Have you learned to love it, dear reader? If not, you have yet to attain to one of the purest and sweetest pleasures possible to the Christian in this life" (J.H. Garrison, Alone with God, 21).

If this quotation has appeal to you, you are not alone. Many of us long to spend time alone with a God. But an hour? In our busy lives? Perhaps, like me, you have desired and intended for years to have a regular quiet time with God, but did not know how to begin. If so, then this volume provides a starting point, a daily five-minute devotional that can begin your time with God.
