Publisher's Synopsis
"Retells how Baptists in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany responded to Nazism and the ensuing Holocaust. Drawing from historical documents from the Baptist World Alliance, newspaper articles from the Baptist Times and others, and the works of contemporary and historic German theologians, Spitzer weaves a narrative that engages hope and deeply disturbs. How did Baptist theology inspire some to save lives, while the Church was used as a tool to promote the most unthinkable of human behaviors in neighboring countries? How did the Baptist World Alliance respond to this deep conflict? Would the Baptist principles of freedom prevail? If these questions intrigue you, pick up (title) to see how European Baptists, along with the BWA, responded to this horrifying conflict"--.
