: Anabaptist Roots of Faith & Freedom
On this Memorable Monday, Rocky Stevenson Pastor of Benoni Bible Church traces how the sixteenth-century Anabaptists—martyred in Zürich, championed by Menno Simons, and streamed through the Mennonites, Hutterites, Amish, and Baptists—laid the foundations for the Free Church tradition, radical discipleship, and modern revivalism. Discover how their insistence on voluntary believer’s baptism reshaped congregational life, and how their conviction that “Christ’s kingdom is not of this world” inspired John Locke and America’s Founders to enshrine the separation of church and state and guarantee religious liberty. Tune in for a stirring excerpt from Locke’s 1689 Letter Concerning Toleration, and reflect on how your own baptism balances covenant promise with individual conviction. #MemorableMonday #AnabaptistLegacy #FreeChurch #ReligiousFreedom #RadicalReformation #ChurchHistory #BelieversBaptism #SeparationOfChurchAndState
