Re: What are you reading currently?
just finished reading "Satan, Fallen Angels, and Demons" by Gordon Lindsay. This was published by The Voice of Healing in Dallas, Texas but does not have a copyright date. The Voice of Healing later became known as Christ for the Nations and is known by that name today. This small book (20 chapters, 161 pages) was part of a correspondence course. I have had this book for close to 50 years. I had read it once before but it was many years ago.

Social Ethics in the Making, Interpreting an American Tradition, and the personal memoirs of U.S. Grant.
The former is a slow read containing a great deal of information on how the social gospel ushered in the social ethics of today.
Grant's book is well written and I'm flying through it.

I wish more of these books were on Kindle. I did just downloaded “Crazy Love”
Sam, I noticed you mentioned Bro Brock, my niece and her husband used to go to their church in Indianapolis. Do you remember a blind lady by the name of Sis Francis Scott? I kept her in my home a few Mo. Until her son could come and get her. She also went to Bro Brocks Church,
I notice you are doing some studies on Prophecy, I finished and got published a book on Prophecy last year. If you have a Kindle, Amazon has it for $5.00.
I think the paperback is overpriced at 15.95, therefore I’ve been wanting to republish it with Kindle and make the price $.99. Or maybe free.
The name of the book is “Red Horse Rising.”
If you read it, I'd like to have some feedback.

Bishop G.R. Brock was the Presiding Bishop of an organization called The Church of Jesus Christ Pentecostal Faith. He pastored a church in Indianapolis at one time. My wife and I went there in late summer or early fall 1959. Our first son, Chris, was born in November that year. I'm attaching a picture of us at Bishop Brock's church. We got a ride up there on a Saturday from a woman who lived here in Cincinnati and she preached that night. She and her husband left after the service and my wife and I spent the night with Bishop and Sis. Brock. They lived in a garage on the property of one of the Church members. It was one room but one corner of it was curtained off as their bedroom. My wife and I slept on a couch in the living room area. I preached Sunday morning and then my wife and I returned to Cincinnati on a bus.
At one time there were 3 churches here in the Cincinnati area who were affiliated with the CoJCPF. I have preached in all three of them. I had a license with them for a few years even though I was going to a UPC church. When we started going to an ALJC church I let my license expire.
Bishop Brock died in 1968. Sis Brock lived until 1994. I only saw Bishop Brock a few times in the early 1960's here in Cincinnati, at his church in Indianapolis, and at the headquarters church in Niles, Michigan. I understand that he later got some form of cancer which resulted in the removal of his voice box or something. In 1971 the CoJCPF merged with the original CoJC which was chartered in 1927.
In 1959 I had joined the CoJC (chartered in 1927 by Bishop Mark Lawson) while I was in a convention in Charleston, WV. Then after I returned to Cincinnati I sent my license back to Bishop Lawson because I was attending a UPC church and doing some teaching and preaching there. Also, my pastor was District Superintendent of the Ohio District of the UPC and I thought I might get in trouble belonging to a different organization.

Re: What are you reading currently?
Sam, You are just full of information. I knew several in the UPC, that you probably knew also. But as i was in the UPC most of my life, I know very little about the other Organizations.
