Church HistorySteve Gregg
Steve Gregg delves into the spread of Anabaptism, a movement which began during the Radical Reformation period. This group believed in the re-baptism of members who had received infant baptism while also rejecting the church-state relationship that existed throughout Europe at the time. The Anabaptist movement was composed of pioneers who shared distinct views on baptism and church government, which led to the persecution and even martyrdom of some members. Today, Anabaptists are known as Mennonites, Amish, and Hutterites.
