A Distinctively Baptist Church: Renewing Your Church in Practice - Paperback

So many Baptists today have forgotten what it means-beyond the mode of baptism-to be Baptist. They have forgotten their heritage. Countless Baptist forebears bought and wrote that heritage with their blood. It is not so much whether or not we remember and honor their names; what is important is whether we honor the legacy they left us.You see, even if we are excited by our Baptist heritage, it matters little if we do not live and show it in our churches. How should Baptist doctrine influence our worship, evangelism, missions, and education ministries as Baptist churches? A Distinctively Baptist Church explains how historically Baptist beliefs can and should shape the way a church functions; the study questions and downloadable teaching guide offer churches a means to work through how their Baptist heritage will shape their life and witness.A Distinctively Baptist Church challenges readers to become-and lead their churches to become-Baptist not only in name, but in truth.
