| Summary: | In this fine volume, Robert E. Johnson, professor of Christian heritage and academic dean at the Central Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Kansas, offers an introduction to Baptist history and praxis throughout the world. Because Baptists have a worldwide presence and their practices mirror great diversity within the wide bounds of their shared beliefs and histories, this is no easy task. From the beginning of the book, Johnson seeks to go beyond the Anglocentric approach that has long characterized many general histories of the religious communion. |
