Baptism: Its Purpose, Practice, and Power

Michael Green (1930–2019) was one of the best-known British evangelical theologians and preachers of his generation. A scholar with degrees from the universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and Toronto, Green had a passion for evangelism and a rare talent for communicating complex ideas in easy-to-understand language. In 1996, Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey granted Green a Lambeth degree of Doctor of Divinity. ?He led university missions on six continents, pastored St. Aldate's Church Oxford, and introduced innovative approaches in seminary education. He authored more than seventy books across a range of fields, including evangelism, apologetics, biblical commentary, and academic theology.

"Michael Green . . . brings out clearly and concisely the theological riches of biblical baptism. . . . While his book is written from an Anglican viewpoint, Presbyterians and others should find their own understanding of baptism enriched by working through it. I recommend it to all students of the subject."
