"These conversations are must reading for those who have forgotten the radical nature of Anabaptism or who consider the issues raised in the 16th century blase in this postmodern time."—Lydia Harder, Toronto Mennonite Theological Centre
Here 13 Protestant and Catholic scholars reflect on how their understandings of the Christian faith have been shaped by their encounter with the Anabaptist-Mennonite tradition.
Written in an engaging, autobiographical style, the essays balance commendations with incisive critique, providing a good reference for anyone who wants to know what is being said and thought of the Anabaptist tradition by what one of the authors calls the "hyphenated Anabaptists."
