If festschrifts celebrate a person for their life's work, few are more worthy of the honor than Bill J. Leonard. He is equal parts teacher, minister, and administrator, all with a style that is "uniquely Leonard." The eleven essays in this volume are a testimony to Leonard's call for integrity of thought and deed and explore topics ranging from race and spirituality to Appalachian religion, and religious freedom.

Durso, Keith Harper, Andrew Manis, Molly T. Marshall, Robert N. Nash Jr., Meredith Stone, Corey D.B. Walker, and C. Douglas Weaver.
