On Being the Church

Theology

“What a timely and significant book! When those historical commitments and convictions that issued in Baptist life and witness are in jeopardy of being forgotten or marginalized, here is a series of essays that reasserts them with enthusiasm, clarity, and theological credibility. The outcome is a book that should be read not merely by Baptists but by representatives of every stream of Christian witness open to receive a prophetic witness to the nature of the church.”
