A Comparative Study of the Anabaptist and English Baptist Movements offers a unique perspective to Baptist History. The book covers both groups related to Baptist origins in belief and practice. Seldom, if ever, has a book sought to cover both movements in one volume. Through this work, you will receive sufficient knowledge that will inform, explain, and inspire you with in-depth insight into both movements.The book explains the origins and characters involved in the burgeoning movements that have shaped Baptists. The detailed study will not only inspire through courageous biographies but offer explanations of historic actions that stand out in an influential way on the History of Christianity. The timeline presented will help readers understand the happenings from a historic perspective as both movements evolved. Major events and influences are covered meticulously throughout the entire book.The doctrinal section of both groups references Baptist leaders' beliefs that differ from other Christian groups, as well as those beliefs Baptists, share with these groups. The thoroughness of the book is seen in the scope, insight, and lasting impact the Baptist movement has had on the world. It is highly informative for those wishing to understand Baptists through approaching their history and practice from a distinct historical perspective. Most Baptists today have no knowledge of this rich heritage. Nelson introduces us to the early leaders of these movements and identifies the distinctive beliefs of these early Baptists. All Baptists would be enriched by knowing more about the heritage described for us in A Comparative Study of the Anabaptist and English Baptist Movements. _______Steve Lemke, Vice President for Institutional Assessment and Provost Emeritus Professor of Philosophy and Ethics, New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminaryi Dan Nelson has taken a different approach in giving us a readable narrative that shows some connection of our Baptist forefathers with the European Anabaptists; plus, many short biographies of different Anabaptists who appeared and were widespread in the medieval period of history. There is a lot to be learned here and the layman can understand the non-technical language of the author who was a Baptist pastor for many decades. _____ Jim Duvall, Editor, Baptist History Homepage

A Burning and Shining Light is a comprehensive, modern-day biography of George Whitefield, the Great Awakening Evangelist. Chronological in nature, its emphasis is on his travel, preaching, and influence on two continents. Nelsons intent is to expand the reader's understanding of Whitefield's ministry to its influence today, by bringing the reader into Whitefield's era. The reader will observe the events of his life, participating in Whitefields passion for ministry, as well as his joys and sorrows. An evaluation of Whitefield's influence is given in the last two chapters. The book is laden with references from other biographies and books about Whitefield. The biography regards the time in which he lived, comparing it to todays time, by evaluating his inward motivations and influences that made him one of the greatest preachers in the History of Christianity.Readers who are interested in early history of the American colonies and the history of one of the greatest dramatic preachers of all time will appreciate this look into what made evangelism what it is today. Its appeal to pastors, students, and leaders who need a magnificent model of perseverance and overcoming obstacles.Students of evangelism will be intrigued by the origin of effective mass evangelism methods. Theologians and believers interested in the struggle between Calvinism and Arminianism will profit from the history of this doctrinal controversy with Wesley.The passive observer who knows nothing about Whitefield can be enlightened to an almost unbelievable legacy of Whitefield's impact on people in a day with so many limitations on travel, communication, and expansion. The impact is a legacy of one who rose out from small beginnings to leave a tremendous example for others to follow.

We need to know how we have gotten to this place in the history of Christianity, as Baptists. What sacrifices have been made by Baptists that have shaped our distinct identity today. It is my concern that many of these cherished teachings may be forgotten, in a rush to not turn off people by teaching doctrines for whom many have fought and even died. I believe it will cost us bigtime, if we lose our identity and forget from where we have come. I am not for preservation, however; as much as I am for fresh truth that will invigorate and give new life to churches, where there is staleness and where churches have plateaued or are dying. When we know our beliefs and proclaim them boldly, God can use these truths to bring revival to churches in a way we have not seen possible before. We will see revival become reality, if we will study and proclaim the truths that have made us great. The real objective of this work is to help those who have taken Baptist beliefs so lightly and loosely. In doing so, I want them to know we not only have a biblical faith, but that we are very clear on why that faith is biblical. The next generation of pastors, church leaders, and churches will be faced with serious doctrinal questions and challenges. Since we live in a pragmatic culture, the pressure is on us to use whatever works in church. We need to be all things to all people that we might save some (I Corinthians 9:22); but also we need to stand for something, so we affirm not only do we believe truth, but are transformed by it. We should be moved by our convictions and want future generations to see these truths have made us what we are.
