Summary

For two centuries, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) Foundation has been at work serving the church and undergirding its mission. In this authoritative and carefully researched history, R. Douglas Brackenridge unfolds the story of how the Foundation developed its unique role in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). It is a history filled with strong leaders, vigorous challenges, and lively debate. Brackenridge shows how the Foundation, even in times of struggle, has been shaped over the decades as a significant instrument of support to the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
