Description:
|
Includes bibliographical references.
The author relates his experience as a member of the Southern Baptist International Mission Board during a time of controversy brought about by two new policies supported by what he terms the fundamentalist wing of the denomination: that missionary candidates must have been baptized in a SBC church, and that candidates would be disqualified if they used a private prayer language. Therefore, the issue of whether to allow speaking in tongues (even privately) is central to the controversy within the missions board.
