Biographical / Historical
The Lookout Committee, Young People's Society of Christian Endeavors (YPSCE)publication began in 1888 as a journal designed to promote the work of young adults in the local church. The goal of the publication was to help readers educate themselves about Christ, the church, and get people connected. The YPSCE did their best to remain non-denomintational but unfortunately had their fair share of difficulties with remaining so.
