“books / gift a great read this Christmas” I am reading in THE WAREHOUSE mailer I picked up yesterday.

Yesterday I also received the WAR CRY ( Issue 6532) and in his Christmas Greetings Commissioner Don Bell is writing that his grandfather had a significant spiritual influence  on his early life. He was a retired Salvation Army officer.

He says that one of the  first Christmas gifts he received from his grandparents was Hurlbut’s Stories of the Bible. He says that they also gave him his first Bible, having long proved its wisdom in their lives.
