1:57:58Now PlayingIs the modern Baptist movement truly retrieving the historic Christian faith—or reinventing it?
Join Stephen Boyce and Pat May LIVE as they critically engage with Matthew Y. Emerson’s article, “On Being Baptist and Remaining Baptist: CBR and Retrieval,” written in response to Matthew Barrett’s decision to leave the Baptist tradition for Anglicanism.
This interactive episode will explore:
• What does the Center for Baptist Renewal (CBR) really mean by “retrieval”?
• Are Baptists historically part of the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church?
• Do the Church Fathers, creeds, and sacramental theology align with Baptist distinctives—or contradict them?
• What does Matthew Barrett’s conversion reveal about the theological fault lines in modern Baptist identity?
This episode invites live audience interaction and questions, so bring your thoughts and join the conversation.
Hit that like button and notification bell, and don’t miss this important dialogue on church history, Baptist theology, and the search for catholicity.
