John
Hargreaves wrote to a friend, "[de Lange's] was the purest
teaching, and I have known queues for his lectures in London's
biggest churches stretch three times round a block an hour
before the doors opened. You can't go wrong with these
books."
Eleonore and
Robert Watrous, were students of and friends with Dr. de Lange.
Over many years, they lovingly collected and organized his
writings for publication.
They
compiled two soft cover volumes to
share more of his writings. One volume presents all of his
Articles which were published in the Christian Science
Sentinel and the Christian Science Journal. The
Articles volume includes nine articles published in the
Sentinel, and 21 articles published in the Journal,
all between 1925 and 1950. 111 pages.
The second
volume presents a collection of his Lectures
written and delivered by him over more than two decades.
There are 12 lectures, each of which explores Christian Science
as "The Science of" such subjects as Perfection, Divine
Dominion, Spiritual Understanding, Harmonious Being, Christ,
Existence, Divine Completeness, Reality, Life Abundant, Love and
Divine Government. 149 pages.
Both volumes are made up of clean photocopies of the original
source material in the publications and newspapers.
In April 2008, Mulberry Press was invited to take over the
distribution
of these volumes. You can order copies of each from the
Mulberry
Press Online Store.
