“This book is a helpful introduction for any who are interested in the potential historical and theological implications of identifying as ‘Reformed.’ And for the readership of this journal, it may be of special inter­est for those who consider themselves to be ‘Reformed Baptists.’” (Jonathan N. Cleland, The Journal of Andrew Fuller Studies (JAFS), Issue 2, February, 2021)“This is an important book. It needs to find its way into seminaries and libraries, but also into the hands of any who are wrestling with the question of theological identity in the current shifting landscape. It deserves to be read and pondered by all who are convinced of the importance of an historically-grounded confessional identity for Reformed Christianity, and by those who are not.” (Jeremy Walker, The Banner of Truth, July, 2019)
