This volume brings together a number of study papers that Professor David Ewert (1922–2010) presented during his long teaching and preaching ministry with the Mennonite Brethren Church. They represent a kind of history of Mennonite Brethren thought from the middle to the end of the twentieth century. The papers that appear in this volume were written in response to requests from denominational leaders and boards. Most of them were discussed at conventions and open forums.
