From the
President
Dr. Arlin Horton,
Founder/President
This spring, the Enrichment Conference and Bible
Conference were both tremendous
blessings. Many expressed their
appreciation.
I cannot prove there is a God, but
I choose to believe
there is a God.
I cannot prove
“We feel greatly enriched by God
through the speakers and their helpful, encouraging sessions.
“Pastors need to be fed and
edified. I listen to preaching tapes
and go to conferences when I can,
but most often cannot get away.
We do not get much on the radio
where we are. Most often, the only
preacher I hear is me. God’s grace
is certainly sufficient, but He created the Body to be interdependent.
Thank you for reaching out to answer this need.
“Every time I come to campus, I
feel as if I am in Heaven’s political
embassy on earth. I know it is
because of the power of God’s presence at work there. One thing PCC
has demonstrated to me—‘God
is able of these stones to raise up
children unto Abraham,’ and He is
able to do that for fundamentalism.
He does not need those institutions which are fast departing from
Him.
“We will continue to encourage
young people to seek the Lord about
attending PCC. We know of no
better place for them.”
—Pastor, KS
“The Bible Conference preaching
was a tremendous blessing. God
used the sermons to do a real and
lasting work in my heart. The effect
on me was colossal.
My life was changed at PCC, and
I desire to see the same happen for
other young people.”
—Youth Director, AL

If you want a model for
What the Little Guy Can Do
begin with the Gablers
M
el Gabler is not a household
name, yet he had more influence in shaping recent American life
than most people realize. He and
his wife Norma stood in the gap for
over four decades, battling the public schools’ textbook establishment.
Time and again, the Gablers inflicted enormous financial losses on
textbook firms until the publishers
learned to have the Gablers approve
their textbooks in advance.
The Gablers lived in Longview, TX, a
small, blue-collar town that was once
the center of the Texas oil boom. In
1961, they began to read their son’s
history and social science textbooks.
The more they read, the angrier they
became. They decided to publicly
challenge the poorly written, poorly
researched textbooks. This was possible because a public school State
Textbook Committee approves all
texts in Texas.
Texas buys so many textbooks that
a book not on the Committee’s approved list is basically worthless nationally. Thus, when the Committee vetoes a textbook, the publisher
must scrap it or revise it. In the
early 1970s, when the Gablers’ protests were gaining credibility, only
five books per subject got on the approved list. The waiting period for
the next round of texts was up to six
years causing publishers hundreds
of thousands of dollars in unrecoverable costs. A book that failed in
Texas became a target of scrutiny in
other states. The economic pain of a
veto was intense — and still is.
The Gablers were different than
many parents. When they joined
the PTA in 1961, they began reading
their children’s assignments. Mel
was skeptical when their oldest son
complained about his American history textbook, but he agreed to read
it. Not only did this change Mel and
Norma’s lives, but it also changed
the way textbook publishers do business.
Mel and Norma spent decades reading textbooks and witnessing the decline in accuracy and morality after
1960.
Their story appears in the book,
Textbooks on Trial (1976). They began
by using local radio and direct mail
prior to Norma appearing before the
Committee. Their initial publicity
got the Committee’s attention, and
her yearly Committee appearances
kept it.
The Gablers became two of the most
skilled media attention-grabbers in
Texas — especially Norma. In 1973,
she read a fifth grade U.S. history
textbook that devoted almost seven
pages to Marilyn Monroe and only a
few sentences to George Washington.
Norma gained national headlines
when she said, “We’re not quite ready
for Marilyn Monroe as the mother of
our country.”
Each year, the Gablers went to the
Committee, sent out mailings, and
called local radio stations. Decade
by decade, their audience grew:
60 Minutes, 20/20, ABC World News
Tonight, Nightline, Good Morning
America, Time, Newsweek, Reader’s
Areas that Gablers monitored —
•
•
•
•
Scientific flaws in arguments for evolution
Phonics-based reading instruction
Principles and benefits of free enterprise
Original intent of the U.S. Constitution
• Respect for Judeo-Christian morals
• Emphasis on abstinence in sex education
• Politically-correct degradation of academics
Digest, People, etc. Their book, What
Are They Teaching Our Children?
became a textbook for those who
sought to reform public education
and those who pulled their children
out of public schools.
Their non-profit organization, Educational Research Analysts, became
a clearinghouse for information
on problems with America’s public school textbooks. The Gabler’s
warehouse is the best place in the
U.S. for researchers to trace the history of the decline in textbook standards. Its shelves are filled with inferior textbooks. Also, their web site
documents what public schools promote academically.
The Gablers hit the textbook establishment where it hurts most — the
pocketbook. They inflicted financial
pain on publishers of inferior textbooks, and authors resented revising
their textbooks.
This will continue because the Gablers’ research assistant, Neal
Frey, will continue monitoring publishers as he has
for the past two decades.
Mel fell, and two days
later went home to
be with the Lord
Dec. 19, ’04.

Preparing for the Pastorate
P
CC provides a firm biblical foundation for every Bible major.
The pastoral ministry major includes
intensive book studies from Genesis
to Revelation along with Greek and
Hebrew. The faculty integrate Bible
truth with academic and spiritual
application, giving students a love
for the Word and a servant’s heart.
Pastor Colan Deatheridge (’94, M’96), pastor of Pocatello Baptist Church, ID, says,
“The greatest tools

PCC UPDATE SUMMER 2005
PCC provided me were the emphasis on biblical study and biblical
languages.”
The 400 students in the weekly Ministerial Seminar hear seasoned pastors
share their wisdom and experience.
Campus Church pastor Jim Schettler
covers practical topics such as weddings, baptisms, the Lord’s Supper,
biblical counseling, etc.
The Campus Church, a local independent Baptist church planted in
a college setting, provides a model
of faithfulness to biblical truth, a
Ministerial Seminar (speaker—Dr. Shelton Smith)
servant’s spirit, and solid preaching. Pastoral majors are involved in
visitation, teaching Sunday school,
choir / orchestra, Master Clubs, and
youth group in the Campus Church.
Pastor Phil Green (’99) said,
“The Campus Church ministry was a great blessing to
me. I was exposed to many
aspects of the ministry because a local church was intricately
connected to my education.”
Ministerial students also serve in
26 area churches, and last summer
59 ministerial students served as interns in churches across America.
Pastoral ministry majors take the
Church Planting Seminar taught by
guest pastors and church planting
leaders. Several PCC grads are now
planting churches in various areas of
the nation.
Hundreds of PCC grads serve as pastors, assistant pastors, and youth directors.
It is exciting to hear how the pastoral
ministry graduates are serving God.

Students
Enjoy
Road-trip
to
PCC P
astor Chris Atkinson of Meriden Hills Baptist Church, CT,
takes students in his church and area to and from PCC
each semester. In 2000, he and his church family saw the need
to buy a bus to help students get to Pensacola Christian College. They want their college-age youth
to be trained in a dedicated, Christian
college to serve the Lord in the vocation that God has for them.
At first, Pastor Atkinson and his wife
Nancy were the only drivers with commercial drivers’ licenses. Now PCC
student Joe Richello and two adults
from the church drive.
Students assemble at the church at
Pastor Chris Atkinson
11 a.m. on Friday and are on the road
(PCC
grad) and family
by noon. The trip usually takes 24 hours. “The bus is really comfortable,” says Kelly Crowley (SR). The time goes by
quickly for the students as they play games and
enjoy fellowship with students and drivers.
Students from other area churches also ride the bus each
semester. One freshman comments that she already had
new friends from the bus trip when she came to PCC her
first semester.
“One guy had a webcam, and I got to interview
everybody on the bus to document the trip,” says
Dave Massa (FR).
Students also enjoy the endof-semester trip. “On the way home we
catch up on each others’ year at PCC,”
says Emily Greenwood (JR).
Jason Allard (FR) appreciates “Pastor
Atkinson’s vision to start the ministry
to help students get to PCC.”
And Tammy Crowley (JR)
says, “The Atkinsons make
the trip special. They make it
feel like home.”

PCC UPDATE 왖 SUMMER 2005
“Let us make man
in our image,
after our likeness”
T
he doctrine of the trinity of God is introduced in
Genesis when God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness”— Gen. 1:26. The plural pronouns
(us, our, and our) reveal God as a holy trinity — one God
in three Persons.
“The Lord our God is one Lord”— Deut. 6:4.
God is one, yet He is in three Persons equal
in power.
The three Persons of the Godhead are: God
the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy
Spirit.
All three Persons of the Trinity were active in creation.
“In the beginning God (the Father) created the heaven
and the earth . . . . And the spirit of God moved upon the
face of the waters”— Gen. 1:1–2. The NT refers to God the
Son in creation, “For by him (Jesus) were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and
invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for
him”— Col. 1:16.
Man—in the image of God
“God created man in his own image”— Gen. 1:27. Of all the
creation, only man was created in the image
of God. The trinity of man best helps us understand the Triune God.
Adam, created as a trinity, had three parts:
body, soul, and spirit. “I pray God your
whole spirit and soul and body be preserved
blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ”— I Thess. 5:23. Yet Adam was only one man, not
three, even as God is one God.
Three parts of man
1. The visible body houses the soul and spirit until the body dies. Death occurs when the soul and
spirit depart from the body. The Old Testament refers to death by saying the person “gave up the ghost”
— Gen. 25: 8, 17; 35:29.
2. The invisible soul includes the mind, emotions, and will. We
might say it is the real
“you.” The soul is
immortal, which
means that
after the
body dies,
the soul lives
on forever, either in
heaven or in hell, and
that depends on whether the
person trusted Christ as Savior.
At death, the believer’s soul and spirit go to live with
God, “to be absent from the body, and to be present with
the Lord”—II Cor. 5:8. Lazarus “was carried by the angels
into Abraham’s bosom”—Luke 16:22. Jesus said to the thief
on the cross, “Today shalt thou be with me in paradise”
—Luke 23:43.
3. The invisible spirit is the person’s link or connection
with God. It is the part of man that was made for
communion with God. “God is a Spirit: and they that
worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth”
— John 4:24. When Adam sinned, his spirit died, and
he was cut off from fellowship with God. Yet Adam
lived to be 930 years old. Spiritual death in hell
is the destiny of all who do not trust Christ as Savior. Jesus said, “whosoever believeth in him should
not perish (hell), but have everlasting life (heaven)”
— John 3:16.
New birth gives spiritual life
After Adam’s sin, each person is born into the world
spiritually dead with no communion with God. For
man’s spirit to live, he must be born again. Jesus said
to the religious leader Nicodemus, “Except a man
be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God”
—John 3:3. For man’s immortal soul to enter heaven, he
must have a new birth. That means, the spirit of God
must quicken (bring to life) his dead spirit in order for
him to have communion with God and to have eternal
life. 쮿

ADMINISTRATION
A
n effective administrative assistant
(new title for many secretaries)
needs experience using today’s technology along with basic office skills.
Students in PCC’s office programs
develop keyboarding, transcription,
and speedwriting skills as well as office efficiency and character traits to
work competently in both Christian
ministries and secular businesses.
Several choices of emphasis are offered — a bachelor’s degree in legal,
medical, and general office administration; or an associate degree in legal,
medical, and general office systems.
Four-year office administration
programs prepare students to be
both office managers and executive
assistants. Students receive advanced
training in computer software and
emphasis-specific topics. The skills
learned in verbal and written communication courses develop vital
managerial skills for teamwork and
customer / employee relations.
Legal office program: Students receive legal knowledge through business law,
legal terminology, and legal
transcription. Stacy Kaetterhenry (’03 grad), hired
12
PCC UPDATE 왖 SUMMER 2005
by a Ft. Lauderdale law firm, says,
“I cannot begin to tell you all the
compliments I’ve received from coworkers. When they saw my work
and efficiency, they couldn’t believe
I had never worked in a legal office.”
Stephanie (McCollum) Winkles (’96
grad), assists the managing partner
at a Boca Raton firm that represents
more institutional investors in securities and corporate litigation than any
other firm in the U.S.
The medical office program offers
many opportunities in a doctor’s office, hospital, or medical transcription
company—either on site or at home.
Students learn medical terminology,
transcription, and insurance coding
and billing.
After taking staffing placement tests,
Amy Fuhrman (’02 grad) says, “They
called five times in a few days to convince me I was needed right away for a
position they had been unable to find
someone qualified enough to fill.”
Nicole (VanderSluis)
Moss (’04 grad) transcribes physicians’ dictation while working
at home for a medical
transcription company.
General office program—whether
in bachelor or associate programs,
students receive a solid background
in office skills. Graduates can work in
virtually any office position and also
have unique ministry opportunities.
A Christian administrative assistant
can work in many nations closed to
missionaries but open to those with
professional skills.
Office administration major Rachel
Deford (SR) completed a summer
practicum at a bank
in Perry, Iowa. Her
supervisor said Rachel’s thorough education made her very
successful in the office.
Two-year office systems programs
prepare students to be administrative
assistants through training in computer software, keyboarding, and
general office procedures.
Both Christian and secular workplaces need people with excellent office skills. PCC’s graduates have more
than a degree; they have the skills and
abilities sought by employers.
