leader.
Leadership, Old and New—
Rev. Robert Kalb's Sunday mes-
sages brought a challenge for spir-
it filled leaders in local communi-
ties, states, nation and world-wide
in these crisis days. Citing our
need today as great as that in
time of Prophet Malachi, who pro-
nounced God's judgment on the
wicked and His blessing upon the
good; also of Nehemiah, whose
great spiritual leadership stirred
the people to the re-building on
their broken down city and walls.
There are great walls to be built
today. Walls for God's honor aiid
service; walls against the evils of
drink, gambling, social vices and
crimes of all kinds. We need the
vision and courage to stand strong
and put ourselves wholly into
God's service.
Read closely first five chapters
of Nehemiah, for the dramatic
story of Rev. Kalb's message. He
announced that his sermons from
now until close of year will be
based on the Old Testamer.t.
Appreciation for the fine choir
at all services.
Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Burkhalter,
