Gospel Herald, East York, ON

The Gospel Herald has been dedicated for some 77 years to encouraging a more Biblical Christianity than is generally seen. Over the years there have been many who have reacted to the divisions, competitions and lack of love in the religious sphere by promoting what they perceived as a more Biblical church. In Canada, the frontier environment resulted in the formation of many scattered and independent congregations. Previous publications intent on encouraging and strengthening isolated Christians and these small groups did not survive the great depression.

To fill this gap, the Gospel Herald, a small monthly magazine was begun in March of 1936 in a home in rural Saskatchewan. The stated purpose was "To promote New Testament Christianity". It contained teaching materials written by preachers and Christians and shared news of happenings and progress from across the country.
