The collection is primarily made up of sermons and speeches. Most of the folders contain supporting documents directly related to the sermons and addresses in the forms of bulletins, correspondence and other ephemera. There are three additional folders at the end of the collection which focuses on prayers, annual conference meetings and manuscript fragments. Topics range far and wide within the standard theological spectrum. They reflect the many ministries in which Craig was involved during her career.
Craig, JudithThe Edward Bauman Sermons collection contains a total of 1,217 recorded sermons for a total of 39.74 cubic feet. The recordings are divided into two series, Radio and Foundry Sermons. There are 650 recordings in the Radio Sermons series and 567 Foundry Church sermons. Topics are as varied as there were in most Protestant pulpits during his time at Foundry. Here the researcher will find sermons on church holidays, theology, social concerns, Christian life with its various facets, Faith, Missions, Biblical teachings and figures, contemporary issues and events, family and ethics. The sermons are on reel to reel tapes and cassettes. Some of the sermons are digitized. There are also study guides used with his television programs and several of his books.
