Scoles also has significant discussion of the Brethren ordinances of trine immersion baptism and threefold communion, and concludes with an insightful look at some of the dynamics surrounding the founding of Grace Theological Seminary and the Grace Brethren movement in the late 1930s.

The book is based, in part, on research Scoles did for his D.Min. dissertation at Ashland Theological Seminary.
