CHURCH LITERATURE The Magazine and Literature Committee regularly releases various publications to address issues of interest, to analyse and answer detracted teachings and clarify our stand. The Committee also oversees the publication of a number of periodicals including The Evangelical Presbyterian and The Burning Bush. Since the establishment of the church, thousands of brochures and books have been distributed or sold all over Australia to spread the Reformation truth. Hardcopies of online publications can be requested through the Convenor of the Commitee The Rev. Chris Connors.
