The Truth in Crisis: The Conservative Resurgence in the Southern Baptist Convention, Vol. 6 - Softcover
Synopsis
"The Conservative Resurgence in the Southern Baptist Convention" is sometimes referred to as Volume Six of James C. Hefley's classic, "The Truth in Crisis". It has also been called the "The Missing Volume." Fewer copies of this volume were printed than any of the other five volumes which have remained in print over the years. Many consider this volume a collector's item. Hefley described volume six as "the wrap-up book of "The Truth in Crisis" series. It covers 70 years of eventful Southern Baptist history, culminating in the most revolutionary change of a denomination in American church history. Here is recent Baptist history available nowhere else, including the dramatic "Showdown at the Sunday School board," the account of the crucial 1991 breakthrough at Southern Seminary, "Baylor University, Saved or Stolen?" and much, much more. The volume is a "must" read for Southern Baptist pastors, agency employees, seminarians, professors and laity who want the full story of what happened to Southern Baptists in the closing years of the 20th century. The book is helpful to anyone who wishes to understand how a major church body was turned in a more conservative direction by a grassroots movement that got out the vote to defeat one of the most powerful religious establishments in America. "Each chater is well documents and no 'loose ends' are left dangling," writes Dr. Lewis Drummond in the book's foreword. "The book . . . speaks of very able scholarship."
