This year, we honor Dr. David Edwin Harrell, Breeden Eminent Scholar of Southern History and professor emeritus at Auburn University. A leading historian of the history of the Stone-Campbell movement, as well the broader religious landscape of America over the past two centuries, Harrell’s work also has addressed the expansion of global Christianity through both his scholarship and his service as a missionary among Churches of Christ in India.
