An American Apostle
註釋In An American Apostle church historian John Booty sets forth the provocative story of the life and work of Bishop Stephen Fielding Bayne, Jr. The book does not claim to be the complete story but, instead, concerns itself chiefly with Bayne as a public figure, an intellectual, and a spiritual person. Bayne held the deep conviction that God created all and loved all that He created. Narrow nationalism, party rigidities, racial bigotry, and sex discrimination therefore stood condemned in the vision of God. In the style of the ancient prophets, Bayne spoke out against those tendencies in the Church and in contemporary society that fell short of this understanding of God's all-embracing love.
