By 1852, ten years after his immersion, there were seventy-six churches in England associated in the aims of Restoration. King moved the center of his work from London to Birmingham, the industrial heart of England, finding that the working classes responded most readily to his message. The church which he established in Birmingham still meets. A young man from that congregation spent Christmas holidays in our home three years ago. He had come up from Abilene where he was completing his Masters degree at ACU, preparatory to returning to Africa and mission work in Zambia. He was a welcome source of information about the movement in Great Britain, and David King in particular. I was particularly interested in his reaction to the differences between American and British churches. He felt that although British churches have profited in some respects from American influence, that influence in most cases has been more harmful than helpful. He saw the American churches as more materialistic, more program and numbers oriented, and generally more sectarian in their outlook and practice. Sunday Schools, the modern pastor system, Restoration - January 1979 7: The Work of David King 12 individual communion cups, and the tendency to divide over these issues—these are things that he feels the Americans have exported to Churches of Christ in Great Britain. It is a pity, perhaps, that most of us do not know more of men like David King and of our brethren in Great Britain. We could learn from their non-sectarian spirit. BY: Dr. Thomas A.
