John the Baptist was a manuscript prepared for a seminary class at Liberty University. When submitted, the professor recommended it to be published. The project initially included two PowerPoint presentations, one for children and one for adults. Extensive research was conducted on the cultural background and customs for the time period. The story takes place near the Jordan River valley during Jesus' adult years. There is some controversy over the location of John's residence and over his burial site. The places used as tourist attractions, although used by John, they may not be his actual residences or burial site. It was a pleasure doing the research and preparing the manuscript. The books referenced in researching John were obtained from Liberty University Library. 2

A resourse from Baptist thinking and foundations.

Southern Baptists are the nation's largest protestant denomination, with over 43,000 churches and millions of members. Since its inception, controversy has surrounded the Baptist Faith and Message 2000, Southern Baptists' most recent confession of faith. The present volume consists of essays by Baptist scholars explaining and defending that document. Each of the 18 articles of the BF&M 2000 is addressed, with special attention to the most critical issues and changes from the denomination's 1963 confession. Also included is an appendix comprising the full text of all three Baptist Faith and Message statements from the 20th century (1925, 1963, and 2000), in side-by-side columns for easy reference and comparison. Contributors include Al Mohler, Paige Patterson, Tom Nettles, Dorothy Patterson, E. David Cook, and C. Ben Mitchell, with a foreword by Susie Hawkins. Brief yet comprehensive, detailed yet accessible to the non-specialist, this volume is a must read for Southern Baptist professors and students, staff and church members, and anyone interested in one of the most powerful religious forces in America.
