One of the most illuminating
few hours I’d spent in a long
while came about a few weeks
ago when Mike Malone was
home for a few days. Mike has
also,, been a ygood friend, and
I’d always wanted to write
something about him. He’s a
personable, intelligent young
man who’s main goal in life is
the most admirable one of all—
bringing his fellowman to Christ.
Mike was born in Roxboro, but
raised in Edenton and graduat
ed from high school here in

much greater than the total ad

Mr. Grooms explained that so
cial security is “not something
for nothing." In the long run,
the value of the worker’s con
tributions will just about equal
what he will get back in pay
ments. In the meantime, he has
had not only protection against
possible death but also disability
protection.
At present the trust fund has
a balance of about twenty-two
billion dollars, with interest on
securities being over one-half
billion a year. This, along with
future income from covered
workers, is expected to be suf
ficient to meet all expenditures.
1955. He graduated from Duke
in 1959 and is currently attend
ing the Virginia Theological
Seminary in Alexandria. He
has a year to go and will then
be ordained as a in the
Episcopalian Church. Following
that, he will minister some
where in Eastern North Carolina.
Next, I shot a barrage of ques
tions at him and the conversa
tion went like this:
Q —Mike, why do you want to
become a minister?
A—'Everyone should ask them
selves about their responsibilities
on earth, that’s basic. In my
case I feel my obligation is as
a minister.
Mike went on _state that
, everyone should be a minister,

i
ordained or otherwise. In his
ease, he felt an undeniable and
unavoidable necessity of doing j
something full-time within thej
structure of the church. Others
who’ve felt this way are his
Classmates at the seminary.
Their average age is about 32,
and there are 62 in Mike’s par
ticular class. Unlike Mike, most
of the others started out in an
other line of work and their
continuing interest in the church
led them to the ministry. These
people are ex-businessmen, engi
neers, lawyers, salesmen, radio
announcers, servicemen. Our
next line of conversation turned
to the church itself and while
you may or may not agree with
all that Mike had to say on this
subject, I think you’ll find his
opinions intelligent and interest
ing. For instance, I questioned
him about some of the spots
where the church needs im
provement. Use of the word
“church,” by the way, denotes
no particular denomination. Mike
felt, though, that it was denomi
nationaiism itself that was ere- 1
ating some of the friction with
in the framework of the Chris
tion Church. Most of the fail
ures, of course, was traceable to
human factions. Too many peo
ple regarding church as a Sun
day only affair. He also felt
that the idea of one church was
a good one, and certainly, a ne
cessary step in promoting mis-,
sionary work. As it is, most
people know very little about
their own church. They- don’t:
know why they believe what
they believe. Mike believes that,
once people truly understand
the beliefs of their own church,
they will then unite with their
own denominations and event
ually, unity amongst all Chris
tian Churches. Something like
this has already occurred in our
country. The Congregational, j
Reformed and Evangelical
Churches united to become the !

United Churdh of Christ, in
India there was a merger be
tween the Church of England,
Presbyterian. Congregationalist
and Methodist Churches. They
are now known as the Church
of South India. Our next topic
of conversation concerned prob
lems the ministers themselves
face. These included an over
abundance of red tape, too* much
administrative detail, both of
which cut into the time neces
sary for ministerial work. How
to solve this problem? Let lay
people do some of that work and
let the pastor use the new
found time for pastoral work,
helping people, writing sermons.
Incidentally, it takes from 5 to
10 hours a- week to come up
with a good sermon. ’Next sub
ject: God and the Church.
Mike’s views? Too many peo
ple confuse God and the Church.
“We brought ’em to church, but
this doesn’t mean we brought
them to God. When a lot of
people join the church, they
work with it, but know very
little about it.” I asked Mike
about bringing these people to
God. There were several dif
ferent ideas on the subject, but
first and foremost was the idea
that we should be Christian in
our action to inspire others. An
other idea was that the Church
should Clarify Biblical teachings.
And on that subject, Mike re
minded that there are different
ways of interpreting Scripture.
He fedls that it’s not right that
any one way should be con
strued as favored by God. Then
we got onto the juicy subject
of the Church and politics. Do
they mix? They do, Mike said,
and they should. He feels the
Church has an obligation to en
lighten its people to make de
cisions on politics or anything
else. Not to dictate, just to edu
cate. Religious teachings and
sermonizing should tie in with
world affairs. An honest pastor
'Combines Jesus’ teachings with
his own interpretations as best
he can. 'Naturally, various
churches will have different
opinions on any particular sub
ject due to -the human element
involved. But this is good.
This leaves room for discussion,
growth and insight and the
Church, at least, is not sitting
still. Once again, I’ll re-state
that this article concerns itself
with the conversation Mike and
myself had a few weeks ago.
The opinions are Mike Malone’s,
but if I didn’t feel that most of
what he had to say made sense
and was important enough to
pass on to others, I wouldn’t’ve
been so busy scribbling notes
for The Herald. So, best wishes
to Mike on the important work
•he will be doing, and I know
our prayers are with him.
Closing thought: Three things
make a Divine ... prayer, medi
cation and trials. These make a
Christian; but a Christian minis
ter needs three more . . . talent,
application and acquirements.
With one Father, even God, the
whole family of man would be
brethren.
—Mary Baker Eddy.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON
Conl'd. from Page 6—Section 2
have none with which to guide
their children. The Hebrew
father, heeding the wisdom of
the ages, instructed and restrain
ed his own son. His life was a
beautiful example of faithfulness
to discipline.
The Christian parent is dis
ciplined “in Christ.” If his own
personal life is filled with the
rich satisfactions of Christlike
living, he will discipline his
child in this spirit. If we in
sist on the discipline of Christ
like ways for our offspring, we
must live according to the rules
ourselves. The absence of this
tenet may account for the re
bellion of many children against
their parents.
The value of discipline is enor
mous. A home with no parental
discipline is likely to be a
hodgepodge of conflicting inters
ests. A child feels most secure
when he knows where he stands.
Family councils are used by
many up-to-date parents to dis-
cuss matters such as money, dat
ing, use of the family car, and
plans for vacations. This is a
pretty good system, as far as it
goes. But parents still must
lead. Without the strong con
victions of seasoned adults to
guide the family council, it can
only too easily degenerate into
a mere session whereby self-in
terests are expressed. Under
wise Christian discipline certain
results will be inevitable in the
family circle. There will be
reverence for' God and others,
love for the church, resnect for
industry and thrift, sacred views
on love and marriage, happy
family life, restraint and self
control in matters of morals,
\ strength of personality in the
I face of social pressures, and
i wholesome self-respect. Such are
! the rewards of worthwhile dis
cipline!
