On Being the Church

Beschreibung

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.

Autor

Brian Haymes (1940-2024) was a distinguished Baptist minister, theologian, and writer, whose ministry and scholarship left a lasting impact on Baptist life in Britain. He served as Principal of both Northern Baptist College and Bristol Baptist College, and later as Minister of Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church in London. Renowned for his depth of theological insight and pastoral sensitivity, Brian was a leading voice in conversations around Baptist identity, theological education, and the vocation of ministry. He authored and co-authored several significant books, and contributed extensively to the renewal of Baptist ecclesiology and theology in the UK. Brian also served as President of the Baptist Union of Great Britain. Deeply committed to the life of the local church, to ecumenical engagement, and to the ongoing theological task, his legacy continues to inspire ministers, scholars, and congregations alike.
