The Redemptive Challenge in Isaiah's Charge
Lecture given Saturday, June 26, 2004 at Abilene Christian University: "Isaiah's charge in Isaiah 6 concerns preaching (until no one can bear to hear another thing, until no one will hear another thing, until there is no hope, until the hearts of the people are so hard they will never turn). However, with the heart of a lover, God sent Isaiah because 'if they did hear,' they 'might' turn. And if they turned, He 'would forgive.'"

Oral History Interview with John Bartlett, February 26, 2004
The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with John Bartlett. Bartlett was drafted March 3, 1943 and went to Camp Roberts for basic infantry training. From there he went to Fort Benning, Georgia for parachute training. Eventually, they were shipped to Brisbane, Australia and after some additional training in Australia they were shipped to Port Moresby, New Guinea to join the 503rd Regimental Combat Team (RCT). The 503rd jumped (from C-47s) onto Corregidor but there were so many causalities that many went in by boat. Bartlett's one combat jump was onto Corregidor. Before Corregidor, the 503rd RCT went onto Mindoro Island by sea. After Corregidor, they went to Negros Island, Philippines as regular infantry. They were there, moving around into different areas, until the war ended. Bartlett describes the Japanese surrendering on the island at the end of the war. He came home in December 1945 and was discharged on Christmas Day.
