S2E5: Jeremy Beller on American Baptist History

 

WATCH THE FULL EPISODE HERE

Dr. James Beller was the author of America in Crimson Red, a book which takes a look at some of the lesser-known figures in American history and the Christians who, many of them, sacrificed their lives to ensure that we would have the religious freedom that we take for granted today.

Join Jeremy Beller, Baptist history expert and son of the late Dr. James Beller, as he shares some of the inspiring stories from church history and why it’s important to study church history.
