Chiefly sermons, clippings, and printed material of J. Doane Stott relating to his missionary work in Japan and ministry in North Carolina, as well as his lecture notes reflecting his time spent at Trinity College and Duke University. Papers also include items relating to Mr. Stott's involvement with CROP, the Greensboro Urban Ministry, as well as the Lion's Club. The Correspondence Series, mainly from friends and churches, contains references for Mr. Stott from various North Carolina politicians and businessmen and church invitations asking him to conduct services. Although most of the Writings and Speeches Series (Bulk 1915-1989), which is the largest series, consists of sermons, class assignments, or debates, there is some printed material included if the items contained handwritten notes. The Brotherhood folder (1930-1966) in this series, contains sermons and other items relating to race relations, mostly within the context of the Methodist church and its relationship with African-Americans. The Sermons and Notes folders, primarily 1950s and 1960s, include several eulogies and many prayers by Mr. Stott and other ministers, which cover a wide range of topics from the scriptures. Some of these sermons have been transliterated into Japanese. The Printed Material Series (1920-1990), includes pamphlets, bulletins, church programs, maps, loose printed pages, as well as journals and books. Most of this material is on either church- or missionary-related topics. There are also a few Duke University alumni publications included. The Miscellaneous Series contains many songs and poems, a photograph of a class at Kagawa Central Gospel School in Japan, as well as items relating to Japan and Greensboro, North Carolina.
