A Lover's Quarrel

Summary: A fascinating Christian life
Review: Leroy Garrett has endured much criticism from his church for his learned views. Depression era high school dropout that earned a Ph.D. from Harvard, Dr Garrett is only now, being valued for his long held views on church unity. I had the privilege to hear him speak on this subject at the ACU lectureships, and just had to read his autobiography. You have to admire him for his Christlike love for the Church of Christ, and even those in the church who vilified him. But even without this thread of "near ostracism" from the church, that dogs him through his adult years, this would still be a fascinating life to read.
The happy ending is that Dr. Garrett has lived long enough to be honored by many Church institutions and fellow-shipped by many who once called him an enemy of the Church.
