Finding A Home Among Baptists: The Fifty-Year History of Welcoming and Affirming Ministry In Baptist Life

 
by C. Delane Tew
We’re on our way to publishing in 2025!

“For 50 years, through American Baptists Concerned and the Association of Welcoming and affirming Baptists, committed folk have worked for the full inclusion of LGBTQIA+ people in our congregations and denominations. While some of us intimately involved in this work are still around to tell the tales, historian Delane Tew has undertaken the important task of researching and recording the story for posterity. This is a project well worthy of our support and I am grateful to AWAB and Delane for making it happen.”
