Christian literature -- History

J.M. McCaleb was a Christian missionary who spent nearly fifty years of service in Japan from 1892-1941. The collection includes scrapbooks, clippings, correspondence, photos, and publications both written and compiled by McCaleb.

The collection consists of Dr. Frank Pack's daily planners, grade books, correspondence, notes, and sermons from 1933 to 1990. The lifelong preacher spent the majority of his career at David Lipscomb College, Pepperdine College, and Abilene Christian College. He also preached or was a guest speaker at numerous churches and universities across the country.

The collection was created by Pepperdine University librarians and consists of publications associated with the Restoration Movement. The Restoration Movement is the umbrella term for the Churches of Christ, the Christian churches and churches of Christ, as well as the Disciples of Christ. The publications are international in scope and document the work of missions, churches, and children's homes.
