Who cares about the Restoration Movement?

We”ve been asking that question with different groups in different ways, and this week we”ll share what we”ve been hearing. For starters, follow the links below to see how certain individuals answered. (Note from webmaster: We will try to relink these after the archiving process is completed.)

We wrote one set of questions and sent them to six leaders in our fellowship. (One of them passed the list on to her son for an additional perspective.) They sent us their answers without consulting with each other, and we”re sharing most of what they said here.

We think you”ll be interested in how they agree”โ€and how they differ. We think you”ll be encouraged by the depth of thought and commitment to core principles expressed by the younger as well as the older members of this group.

We hope this will only begin the discussion of these questions. Idea: take them to your small group or elders meeting or Sunday school class or circle of friends. Let us know how you agree or disagree.
