More Feed ... for a Little Flock, by James E. Funk, 2003.

     Following the publishing of the first book, Feed ... , we still had tapes of eighteen more of Jim Funk's messages.  So we organized the second book, More Feed ... , although we did not print it at the time.  Now, we have made both books available in Kindle format.

     Jim Funk was a Christian Bible teacher who lived and taught in Alfred, New York, for almost thirty years of his life.  He was a Professor of Ceramic Engineering at Alfred University and a gifted Bible teacher who influenced and impacted many students who attended Alfred University and Alfred State Tech from the mid-1960s through to 1989 when he moved south.  He spent the final years of his life in Seneca, SC.  

     He participated in local assemblies of Christians for all of his Christian life.  He spoke often at Sunday meetings of Christians.  Every Friday evening for about 25 years, he led a Bible study in his home in Alfred.  The living room in the Funks' first home on South Main Street was really quite tiny.  Nevertheless, 40 or more students frequently piled into every available space to attend the Friday night studies.  After building a new house (with a much larger living room) up on a hill on the outskirts of the village, the Bible studies continued for many more years.    

     The messages in these two books show the breadth of his knowledge of the scriptures, as well as his speaking style.  He frequently would draw on his experiences in the US Navy on the battleship USS Missouri following WWII.  He used one such experience to explain a passage in one of the messages in this book.

     He was quite funny and always very interesting.  All the while he was speaking, however, he was constantly assessing whether or not his message was getting through to the listeners.  He frequently asked for feedback --- and when nobody would budge or flinch, he would shake his head up and down and say, "This is YES," and then he would shake it sideways and finish with, "and this is NO."  Then, he would ask the question again.  That usually got a response.

     Our biggest goal for these books was to preserve his speaking style for the benefit of his grandchildren and others, who never heard him speak.  Those of us who knew him and who sat under his ministry believe we succeeded in this effort.  

     We hope you all enjoy these messages.  Those of you who knew Jim will be reminded of the good ole days in Alfred.  Those of you who never had the chance to meet him or hear him speak will be able to experience his teaching through these books.  

     Enjoy!
