Restoring, Rethinking, Remembering
By Dale Brown In an Indiana factory town in the 1950s, my family labored as a backbone piece of the Madison Avenue church of Christ. (They insisted on the small “c” for “church” as they were not a denomination””not by a long shot.) Evangelicals commonly talk about where and when they “met the Lord,” and I suppose a “meeting” of that sort happened to me in that Madison Avenue venue””not a commercial center by any stretch””but a fake tan brick building on the wrong side of the tracks where most of the important stuff of my young life came together.
