    "The Vanishing Ministry" by Woodrow Kroll, examines the steady decline in the past 25 years of full-time Christian ministers, missionaries, workers, and sets the blame squarely on the shoulders of:
    >Parents
    >Christian Colleges
    >Churches
    >Culture
    >Youth themselves

    I literally cried my way through this small paperback as I faced up to the tough questions of:
    ~"How we are REALLY doing?"
    ~"How did we get into this mess?"
    ~"Where do we go from here?"

    DR. BOB, HELLO, SPAM HERE; DON'T ASK ABOUT THE NAME, YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT ANYWAY. ABOUT THAT BOOK YOU WERE REFERRING TO, IS IT READILY AVAILABLE IN MOST CHRISTIAN BOOK STORES? BY GOD'S PROVISION, HE HAS OPENED THE DOORS RECENTLY FOR MY WIFE, 3 OTHER COUPLES AND MYSELF TO START A CHURCH IN NEW CANEY, TEXAS: SUBURB OF HOUSTON. THIS BOOK, BY WHAT I GATHER FROM YOUR INTRO, WILL GO ALONG NICELY WITH A GROUP OF MESSAGES THE LORD HAS LAID ON MY HEART. GODSPEED.
