* The first of a series of four articles. Before anything else, before she is her husband's companion, her children's mother, her church's helper, the world's missionary, the minister's wife is a child and servant of God, answer able to Him for her words and actions, dependent on Him for righteousness and grace.

H. B. Hannum
The playing of hymns on either the organ or the piano is no insignificant matter. Too often the musician neglects his education in the truly effective playing of hymns.

The need of every minister of Christ, whether missionary, evangelist, teacher, or pastor, is deeper than the mere shortcomings which are obvious on the exterior. All have a deep need of the heart which, when met, will cause his few faults to fade into insignificance. This need is the fullness of the Holy Spirit in his life and ministry.

T. R. Flaiz
As we come into increasingly troubled and uncertain times and as tragedy on a large scale becomes the world's way of life, the person qualified to minister to suffering, in tenderness and Christian love, will in a special sense be walking in the footsteps of the Great Physician.

G. R. Nash
Results and achievement are among the rewards of leadership. When the minister sees the tangible results of his efforts and the fruition of his labors, they are like a cool breeze on a sultry desert night.

W. E. Murray
In the Pauline Epistles a great deal is written about instructions, exhortations, and explanations of Christian unity. The apostle Paul not only instructs and exhorts the laymen regarding this attribute but in very definite lines he instructs the ministry on this same subject.

Halford E. Luccock
The truth is that Christian theology makes a tremendous difference to all that a person does on Main Street or any street. For Christian theology is the clear meaning of the things most surely believed in the Christian faith. Christian theology takes us into the highest meanings of life.
