Notable Preachers: Gone but not Forgotten

By Gary Lee Roper

A retired octogenarian Baptist preacher takes us back to the glory days of the Temple Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan, where he was converted and baptized by the legendary J. Frank Norris, and sat under the preaching of G. Beauchamp Vick. The author regales us with tales of his college days in the early years of Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri, and the influence of R. O. Woodworth in leading him into the doctrines of Grace. Roper writes of the many prominent men, twenty-five in all, with whom he was privileged to co-labor. Among them are such notables as R. J. Rushdoony, Francis Nigel Lee, R. G. Lee, John Rawlings, Rolfe Barnard, B. B. Caldwell, Jerry Falwell, Ferrell Griswold, Peter Connolly, W. E. Dowell, Noel Smith, and creationist scientist Henry Morris. A valuable documentary of the fundamentalist movement of the mid-twentieth century.
