RADIO PROGRAM No.306 - "The kingdom of God is within you"

Speaker: Have you ever heard someone say something like this: I've tried to be more understanding, loving, helpful, and kind, but it's just not my nature to be that way?

She began to learn the facts of man's real nature, man's divine nature as Christ Jesus understood it. Now I'm going to ask Miss Ruth Bradford, of Arlington, Virginia, to tell you how this transformed her whole life.

Miss Bradford: Well, to start at the beginning, I'd always been religiously inclined; I was a student of the Bible. And after graduating from college, I worked for several years with an interdenominational group, mainly with young people.
