Standing Firm

Plot

Will our church split? Can the center hold? An urgent debate is raging within America's mainline denominations. Yet the fundamental questions are not new. In 325 A.D. at a place called Nicaea, the Church eruped into a battleground between forces of Christian faith and cultural accommodation. Some people lost their jobs. Others were banished. Throughtout the fifty-six year firestorm one man stood firm...and we have inherited his faith. With rare clarity, Parker Williamson traces our modern religious concerns to the past-and finds hope and resolution for the future. Parker T. Williamson served as editor of the Presbyterian Layman (he is now editor emeritus), a national Christian newspaper with circulation of over 1/2 million, known for strong traditionalist religious stances.
