Featured Materials
The Navy Days (and Years) of Fred A. Skellie, Jr. Call number: D811 .S54 2006
Fred Skellie has been so kind as to provide the church library with a copy of his writings depicting his Navy experiences during WWII. These writings were the basis of several talks he’s given at Druid Hills UMC in recent years. If you missed his lectures or would like to revisit them, be sure to check out this great new resource.
(Reprinted for the September newsletter)
A Generous Orthodoxy by Brian McLaren, Zondervan, 2004. Call number: BT60 .M37 2004
“A confession and manifesto from a senior leader in the emerging church movement—A Generous Orthodoxy calls for a radical, Christ-centered orthodoxy of faith and practice in a missional, generous spirit. Brian McLaren argues for a post-liberal, post-conservative, post-protestant convergence that will stimulate lively interest and global conversation among thoughtful Christians from all traditions” (from book jacket). Recommended by Les Scott, who made this acquisition possible.
