Episode 245: Lessons from Baptist History in the South
In today's episode, we're taking another look at the story of the Baptists in America, particularly in regard to the growth and expansion of Baptist influence across the southeast corridor of the United States.
In what ways did Baptists in places like Virginia, Georgia, the Carolinas, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, etc. help shape the character and philosophy of ministry in the earliest years after the American Revolution up until this very day?
To help us unpack this history, I'm joined by Dr. Alan Shelby, Dean of the Living Faith Bible Institute and Faculty Professor of theology, philosophy and history at LFBI. Pastor Shelby just finished up a series of lectures about Baptist history at Callie Harbin Baptist Church in Villa Rica, Georgia, where he addressed this very subject on Baptist history, particularly in the Southeast.
