Understanding the Shift from Baptist to Presbyterian Traditions
In this episode of the Plain Speech Podcast, Michael Clary explores the factors behind Baptists transitioning to Presbyterian churches. Drawing from a piece he wrote on his Substack, Clary discusses the theological and cultural influences that guide these shifts, emphasizing the role of family discipleship in this movement.
He theorizes that embattled Baptist families are seeking environments more focused on catechizing children and preserving Christian values amidst growing societal hostility. Clary also critiques the potential pitfalls for Baptist churches that may neglect child-focused discipleship in favor of broader evangelism efforts.
