Preacher's and Christian Worker's Class

The Public Speaking Class for Preachers and Christian Workers is a new class in Bethany-Peniel College. The training we receive is not made a substitute for the Old Story of experi­ mental salvation. O ur slogan is "There is no substitute for a heart message." "We must be true ourselves if we the truth would teach. O ur hearts must overflow if we another's heart would reach. It takes the overflowing heart to give the life full speech." We, therefore, b elieve that before we can give a truth we must liv e it. We pro­ ceed on the principle "from within outward" and the persistent attempt is made to train each individual to present the truth in such a manner that the minds and hearts of those who hear will respond to that truth. With this result in view, the voice and body must be liberated and become per­ fect channels to convey the message. We believe that we have a message to give. The personnel of the class is s plendid-men and women who are thoroughly saved, who have met the Great Teacher of Truth, who spoke to the people as "One who had author­ ity." We b elieve that with the training we are recelvmg, in conjunction with zealous hearts, we can go forth to take our message of truth, not only to those who are around us, but also to them "that are afar off even un�o the uttermost parts of the earth."
