Book Description

In a collection of essays, six British Baptists seek to show how the act of believer's baptism can help us to understand the creative activity of God in the natural world, human society, political life, and the Christian community, and how it can lead us to contemplate the nature of the true God who calls people into relationships. Reflections on the Water, the fourth volume of the Regent's Study Guides jointly produced with Regent's Park College of Oxford, concludes with a fresh approach to ecumenical conversation and to Baptist identity through a response to the essays by a New Testament scholar of the Church of England.
