Courage of Your Faith
|
Short stories from our Baptist history set the stage for the study of issues as relevant today as they were then.
You will be challenged and you will be surprised by what stands our forefathers took and by the impact they had.
Today, "denomination" has lost significance. "Christian" seems more appropriate as we seek to minimize differences.
Yet looking at Baptist History, as in this study, teaches us something of what it means to be a Christian
and the role Baptists had in making the world what is today.
