Published 28 June 2016Paperback A$25.00 + packing/postage

Questions of Baptist identity may be more important than many Baptists realise. What does it mean to be a Baptist community? What aspects from history shape Baptist churches, and what might be carried forward into the future?

These are the issues that have inspired this collection of essays by scholars and thinkers from around the world, offered to honour Australias foremost historian of the Baptist movement, Rev. Dr Ken Manley.

Baptist identity into the 21st century contains a detailed biography of Ken Manley by Marita Munro, plus 20 essays covering 8 themes:
