CABBAGE HEAD MOVEMENT
Jessie David Roberts in “Bears, Bibles and a Boy” tells that when he was a young pastor in 1905 at Bolton Landing, New York on the banks of Lake George, he made friends with a fellow pastor who baptized in a different way than he did. It bothered some in the congregations that they were friendly and not fighting over their doctrinal differences. In fact, one disgruntled member for some reason began attending the other pastor’s church, and a sour saint from the other’s church started attending his! Both pastors accepted the exchange agreeably, and the one pastor remarked hopefully, “It usually does cabbage heads good to transplant them.”
