If Only I Had Known . . . William R. Russell

If Only I Had Known... is a collection of meditations and reflections of and by mostly New Testament biblical characters in the form of monologues and soliloquies. The author, the Rev. Dr. William R. Russell, originally presented these soliloquies as special sermons that were enthusiastically received by worshipers. Deeply touching, relevant, and captivating, these sermon soliloquies and monologue meditations cover the full sweep of the nativity, ministry, triumphal entry, passion, death, and resurrection of Christ. Born a Canadian and raised a Presbyterian, Dr. Russell studied philosophy at the University of Toronto and theology at Princeton Seminary. For four decades, he served as pastor of churches large and small in both Canada and the United States.
