    Growth is as essential in human personality as it is in a stalk of corn," wrote the pastor of First Community Church, Columbus, Ohio, in 1935.

  • The Theological Discussion Group and Its Impact on American and Ecumenical Theology, 1920–1945

    Discussion about theological developments in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s has focused on the influence of European “crisis theology” and Reinhold Niebuhr.
