On Being the Church - Paperback

by Brian Haymes (Author), Ruth Gouldbourne (Author), Anthony R. Cross (Author)

This book re-examines Baptist theology and practice in the light of contemporary biblical, theological, ecumenical, and missiological perspectives. It is not a study in denominationalism, but rather attempts to revision historical insights from the believers' church tradition, seeking to re-appropriate forgotten emphasis, bringing them together in a revised ecclesiology.
