Taking significant events in Baptist history, the writers tell the amazing Baptist story of the voluntary approach to the Christian faith in popular, non-technical but appealing ways. The intentionally brief chapters are, for the most part, void of heavy, historical notes. Designed as an introductory study for students, laity, and parish ministers, more advanced students will also benefit from a close reading of this text.
