Through autobiographical narratives, Minding the Church details contributions of fourteen Anabaptist scholars to their disciplines plus features thoughtful responses. From philosophy to economics, from history to biblical studies, this volume gives voice to Anabaptist scholars as they explain their motivations and objectives as teachers, researchers, and writers. The book "a valuable resource for understanding how Anabaptist scholars today view their vocations," says George Marsden, Francis A. McAnaney Professor of History, University of Notre Dame; and author, The Outrageous Idea of Christian Scholarship
