Description: The modern church is suffering from crises in identity, belief and involvement with the State. As you read this collection of the works of William Barker you will find that they are all connected.

The reason why the church has problems interacting with government is because it doesn't understand its mission, history and authority. Barker, an internationally respected Professor of Church History, shows what the church should look for in creating proper relationships with governments, other faiths and society in general. He also explains how we should deal with divisions inside the church and what role the Bible should play in defining its faith.

"Ambassadorial, wise, kind, careful and brilliant, ...Dr. Barker is a first-rate church historian, and his considerable theological skills are on open display...His generous spirit, powerful mind and pastoral heart are productive of theologial discourse that is a model, in both tone and content, for reformed ministers and scholars as we engage with the hostile postmodern culture."
- J. Ligon Duncan III, President, Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals
