“Any church which forsakes the regular and uniform for the periodical and spasmodic service of God, is doomed to decay; any church which relies for its spiritual strength and growth entirely upon seasons of "revival," will very soon have no genuine revivals to rely on.

More!' while the automobiles pile up in showrooms and on freeways and in used-car lots and finally junkyards, his only satisfaction the gross production figures at the end of every quarter?” WayKindChildrenSoulEndsUsedGrowthChurchLinesCarFiguresBirthLaborWorkersSatisfactionProductionsDrivingQuartersRight WayGreedyGrossAutomobileAssemblyProhibitionReproductionBirth ControlFreewaysPopulation GrowthAssembly LineUsed CarJunkyardShowroom Author:Nancy Mairs
