Brethren Heroes Book Sent to Press

Jun 6, 2005


BMH Books, Winona Lake, IN, announces that Heroes Who Live On, Volume 2 went to press today and should be available for shipping within a month. The book features 13 men and women who have played a significant role in the development and history of the Fellowship of Grace Brethren Churches.

The Heroes project was initiated by CE National under the direction of Ed Lewis, and CE National published Volume 1 in 2002. Text for the 106-page paperback Volume 2 was created by Robert Cover, Sr., and his daughter, Viki Rife. Illustrations are by 2005 Grace College art department graduate Sarah Pratt, and Prof. Arthur Davis, head of the college art department, oversaw the interior design and typesetting of the book.

Written for an upper-grade-school audience, the book features personality traits of the 13 subjects, and includes discussion questions that may be used for individual, Sunday School class, or “Brethren History Moments” among churches. The discussion questions were created by Ashley Woodworth, a 2005 Grace College graduate who was an intern with the Brethren Missionary Herald Company the spring of 2005.

Individuals featured in Heroes Who Live On, Volume 2 include Henry Holsinger, L.S. Bauman, Mary Bauman, R. Paul Miller, W.A. and Frances Ogden, Allen Bennett, Orville Jobson, Charles W. Mayes, Jake Kliever, Noel Gaiwaka, Ralph Colburn, and Evelyn Fuqua.
