\Y. A. Chastain, jmstor of the
Christian church is a native Georgian
and was educate l at l<e.xington. Ky.
Beginning there in 1SS5 he t<x>k a
four year course and in June 1889
graduate d from the College of the
Bible in Kentucky Unversitv. He has
been since that time engaged in regu
lar pastoral and evangelistic work.
He was for two consecutive years,
president of the (So rgia State Mis
sionary convention and for sometime
member and s oretarv of the State
Missionary Board and is at present
treasurer of the Georgia Christian
Education Society. As a preacher he
is plain, practical and enthusiastic.
He believes that the model church is
the evangelistic church and that if
, the churches were awake to their
I possibilities and obligations there
would be not only an elevation of
Christian character hut a general de-
{ > velopment of latent powers and a
gradual increase of membership. Mr.
| Chastain is nearing the close of his
1 ninth year of service with this church
and during these years he has ever
inspired the members with hope and
courage, taking the position that they
.are able financially and every other
! way to do what the Lord would hav*
; them <k>.
