Proclaiming the Baptist Vision:
Religious Liberty

Religious liberty is one of the foundational perspectives that defines Baptists. In this book, Shurden gathers the voices of key figures in Baptist life and calls us to hear their ideas on religious liberty through a look at selected sermons and essays. Some of the voices arise from our history, and others show the contemporary expression of this core Baptist belief.

Contributors include: James M. Dunn, William H. Brackney, Carolyn DeArmond Blevins, Roger Hayden, George W. Truett, E. Y. Mullins, Brent Walker and Stan Hastey, Rosalie Beck, Michael Bledsoe, Derek H. Davis, Thomas R. McKibbens, Jr., R. Quinn Pugh, and J. Alfred Smith, Sr. Religious Liberty is the fourth volume in the Proclaiming the Baptist Vision series.

Walter B. Shurden is the Callaway Professor of Christianity and chair of the Roberts Department of Christianity at Mercer University. He is the author/editor of numerous studies about Baptists.
