In Search of the New Testament Church
When John Smyth organized the first Baptist church, he wanted to establish the New Testament church; believer's baptism was the missing link. Baptists of subsequent eras often continued the search to embody "New Testament Christianity." Unique to surveys of Baptist life, Doug Weaver highlights this restorationist theme as a way to understand Baptist identity. Weaver does not force the theme, but the "search" is ever present. It is found in the insistence upon believer's baptism, but also in examples like the Sabbath worship of Seventh Day Baptists, the "nine rites" of colonial Separate Baptists, the women preachers of Free Will Baptists, the "trail of blood" of Landmarkism, the social gospel...
Acts ()
In Acts, the third of eighteen volumes in the Paideia commentary series, leading biblical scholar Mikeal Parsons gleans fresh theological insight into Acts by attending carefully to the cultural and educational context from which it emerges. Parsons see Acts as a charter document explaining and legitimating Christian identity for a general audience of early Christians living in the ancient Mediterranean world. Pastors, graduate and seminary students, and professors will benefit from this readable commentary, as will theological libraries. The Paideia commentaries are designed to be read through and used, not shelved and referenced. The main text is supplemented with maps, sidebars, and photographs. Indexes and reference lists help readers locate discussions in the commentary and in other secondary literature.

Westmont
At the time of its incorporation, Westmont was the home of rolling prairie and vast swaths of farmland. Over the next 100 years, Westmont grew into a place known for its small-town charm and close-knit community. Over the course of its history, the "Progressive Village" would find itself tied to the Great Chicago Fire, Prohibition, the godfather of Chicago blues music, and the international Beanie Babies craze. It is a town that has thrived on community involvement, from its humble beginnings with an all-volunteer fire department to its current reputation for having some of the best volunteer-led events in all of Chicagoland. Westmont is a proud community that cares for its citizens and celebrates their accomplishments.
