This biography traces Rev. Julius Caesar Herrin's life from a mill town in North Carolina to the national scene. His life is a microcosm of struggles within the American church to create the Beloved Community. Herrin's work was possible because his liberal theology and support for interracial meetings resulted in his firing in 1954 by North Carolina Baptists, for whom he worked with the Baptist Student Union at UNC Chapel Hill. That firing forced him to move north, where he ministered in an American Baptist church. The Field Foundation, the American Baptist Home Mission Societies, and other American Baptist organizations in 1958 provided funds for Herrin's return south and his entry into the Civil Rights Movement.

In this compelling intellectual biography, readers are invited to reconsider that assumption through the life and thought of neo-evangelical American Baptist theologian Bernard Ramm (1916-1992), one of the most significant yet underappreciated figures in modern evangelical history.

Through the open-door hospitality of Maranatha Baptist Church, the Plains congregation where Jimmy Carter maintained a membership for his entire post-presidential life, "Jimmy Carter's Sunday School Class" welcomed crowds of curious folks from a vast variety of faiths, lifestyles, and cultural backgrounds on the search for a once-in-a-lifetime experience to witness a national treasure share his relevant insights from time-tested Scriptures. Always thoughtful, never pretentious, fifteen of Carter's lessons illustrate how Scripture-inspired love can reach the world beginning right at home. Four of the selected lessons were taught at The First Baptist Church of the City of Washington, D.C., during President Carter's four years in the Oval Office.
