Readings for Leadership & Structure within the Brethren in Christ Church Core Course, which is my last Brethren in Christ core class. AND I'll be writing reports on each of them :) A special thank-you to those who helped supply me w/copies of the books :)

I'm taking the Brethren in Christ Core Courses as part of my relationship with Brethren in Christ World Missions. Perspectives in World Missions comes next. I've been waiting a long time for this class :)  Note: I've taken all of the Core Courses for seminary credit at Ashland Seminary and they will transfer to my studies at Evangelical Theological Seminary (Myerstown, PA). I resume classes at Evangelical in the fall.

    Thank-you for the offer Jon, but I no longer need it. I just received a copy from another friend and have started to read it. Happy to see it's not too long.

    I guess I better update the post!
