A criticism often leveled at Baptists is that they have no theology
of ecclesial reality beyond the local. In this book Keith Jones
describes the history and current reality of the European Baptist
Federation (EBF), which brings together over fifty national Baptist
groups in Europe and the Middle East and seeks to demonstrate that
there is an ecclesial reality within the organization, expressed in
its communal life, mission activity, working on theological
education, in relationship to other Christian world communions and
in its decision making processes. The role of the pivotal figure of
the General Secretary of the EBF is examined with particular
reference to two significant figures. The relationship of European
Baptists during the cold war era is explored, as is the
relationship to two key mission agencies from the USA who have done
much work in Europe. This represents ground-breaking work in terms
of an examination of how Baptists in Europe work together
trans-nationally.
