Letters to the Churches - Hardcover

by M. L. Andreasen (Author)

"We need to go back to the instruction given in 1888, which we scorned. We need a reform in organization that will not permit a few to direct every move made anywhere in the world. We need a reform that will not permit a few to handle finances. We need a reform that will not permit the spending of millions on institutions not authorized by the vote of the constituency. We need a change in the emphasis that is given to promotion, finances, and statistics. We need to restore the Sabbath School to its rightful place in the work of God. We need to put a stop to the entertainments and suppers that are creeping in under the guise of raising money for good purposes. We need to put a stop to announcements in church that are merely disguised advertisements. However, while all these things are important, they are only minor things. We need reformation and revival most of all."--M. L. Andreasen, August 1959
