Former President of the Southern Baptist Convention, Who for More Than Twenty-six Years Has, as President of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Worn the Mantle of B. H. Carroll, its Founder, and Who, as Preacher, Teacher, Author, Financier and Leader in This Great Task, Has Successfully Piloted the Institution Through Inexpressible Hardships and Difficulties, This Book is Lovingly Dedicated.
