Overview

The sixteenth-century Anabaptist movement was a missional movement! Certainly it was much more, including a movement of voluntary Christ-centred faith, of believer's baptism, of costly discipleship, of the church as free from the state (and vice versa), of peace and non-violence, of mutual aid, and more. However, to relegate its missional core to the periphery, or worse, to miss it altogether, is simply to ignore the historical record. This book joins previous voices in seeking to correct that misperception. We do well to hear afresh some of the missional voices of sixteenth-century Anabaptists. Voices that made the Great Commission binding on all church members. Voices that held together holistic evangelism, costly discipleship, and church planting movements. This book compiles a diversity of voices including both leaders and laity, educated and illiterate, persecuted and persecutors, internal writers and external recorders. They speak up in the form of booklets or treatises, chronicles and commentaries, court records and martyr stores, hymns, letters, sermons, and more. Here is a resource for local church workers who seek illustrations for preaching, information for teaching, and inspiration for the journey of missional discipleship.
