G. R. COWELL: MEMORIALS OF MINISTRY - 1936-60: Volumes 1-16
"It has been felt for some time past that the ministry of our beloved brother G. R. Cowell
was particularly intended of the Lord Jesus to meet the increasing need of a deeper
acquaintance with Himself, and the promotion of an inward state of soul suited for
the presence of Divine Persons. In publishing these 'Memorials' our prayerful desire,
therefore, is that the Lord may be pleased to richly bless and use this ministry of Himself
for the help and edification of His dear people wherever they may be found."

G. R. COWELL: LATER MINISTRY - 1960-63: Parts 1-7
GRC's later ministry was given in 1960-63 following his unrighteous
excommunication until he was taken by the Lord, February 19, 1963.
It is specially valuable because
• it provides instruction and comfort for those of us in the present time who,
as himself and those he served, have gone forth to Him without the camp;
• it gives insights into the exercises of that time, and warnings of dangers
that eventually caused the disintegration of that once hopeful movement;
• it shows the concern of a shepherd's heart, a teacher's faithfulness in opening
up the truth, and the meek and humble spirit of a true bondman of the Lord.
