Inhaltsangabe

A collection of essays that argues that Baptists are frequently misrepresented, by outsiders as well as insiders, as members of an unchanging monolithic sect. But what does it mean to be a 'real Baptist'? Some look to historical figures as heroic exemplars of Baptist core values. Others consider cultural, social, or political issues to be guideposts for Baptist identity. Through a Glass Darkly dives deeper into history for answers, revealing a more complete version of the expansive and nuanced history of this religious group.
