"In this substantial volume Fudge is narrator, historical analyst, and theological provocateur. This is a highly documented account of C.H. Yadon as well as a Pentecostal institution founded on doctrinal accommodation that within fifty years had become a 'vanishing past.' It is a historical narrative with a warning that there are moments when saints become sinners and heretics become saints, when churches trade their pledge to guard the Faith for Esau's pottage of political power. Thomas Fudge is consistently transparent in his approach, cautious when certitude is not warranted, and forthright when conclusions are justified." David A. Reed, Professor Emeritus, Wycliffe College, University of Toronto "Reading this book was like sitting down with an old friend! I could see C.

H. Yadon and hear his voice and more than once, I was brought to tears with the memories." Daniel J. Lewis, Retired Professor, William Tyndale College "Another thrilling detective-like story of an underdog, all the more remarkable as a piece of historical theology, but what we have come to expect from Thomas Fudge. This book on a figure otherwise fast fading away from historical memory adds to Fudge's weighty body of work devoted to providing minority reports for posterity." Amos Yong, Professor of Theology & Mission, Fuller Theological Seminary "Thomas Fudge's book is a fair, objective and sympathetic analysis of my Uncle Haskell and his theology. C.H.

Yadon was a product of the cowboy culture wandering the wide open plains of ideas with a Christianized Native American spirituality. In this robust analysis of the theology of C.H. Yadon, Fudge has done a service by shining a light on a chapter of church history that is fast passing away and would have been lost apart from his efforts. A captivating read." Paul Vernon Yadon, Senior Pastor, Kendall Chapel, Maple Falls, Washington.
