“In this eloquent account, Jack Reese calls Churches of Christ to draw from the sources of spiritual strength of their past to navigate this time of crisis and uncertainty. Bringing together fascinating but seemingly unrelated strands of this rich history, Reese weaves a tapestry of inspiring and frustrating characters, showing how Churches of Christ have been formed and how they might be formed now. Readers from the Stone-Campbell tradition as well as Christians from all streams of the faith will find in this beautifully crafted narrative a stirring call to faithfulness.”

Reflections on My Life

History & Biography

“Tom Olbricht has mentored thousands through his long career as a teacher, writer, and church leader and continues to do so powerfully through this volume. In this frank and unassuming account, Olbricht provides rich insights not only into his own formation and life in Churches of Christ, but also into the complex development of that body in the twentieth century. Olbricht's immense influence on theological education in Churches of Christ makes his story a vital resource for understanding the development of this significant American, and now global, religious movement.”
