Re: DKB: The Leader

Just because DKB did not choose to practice law with his law degree does not mean anything bad.

I don't know his life's story so can't comment on when he felt the calling to ministry and how that timeline flows with his law school experience but for someone with an intellectual bent I think law school is a great background for many vocations, including the ministry.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

I didn't say it was "bad" at all - I said that despite his Law degree, we probably can't lump him into the category of "lawyer" as some at least appear to have suggested.

You are correct about the J.D. - I have a family member with one and he's been rather successful in business mostly doing the work of a bean counter and researching investment opportunities. He seemed to have gotten out the legal field about as fast as he could - at least in my impression.

Similar case with DKB - but a bit different in that he seemed to have gone into full time ministry at about the first chance he had. He'll be called a lot of names - I'm just saying "lawyer" probably doesn't fit.

Re: DKB: The Leader

Wheeler interviewed David Bernard online. I remember listening to it. DB talks about his history. You can listen to it by clicking on the link below.
