This is excellent. I so appreciate the early summary, which was an excellent base for modern interpretation of Eg Mennonites or Anabaptists. Then, thank you Robin for posing those slightly more personal questions to the master. 😏 Will, are you thinking of publishing? Maybe podcasts are modern publications.

Excellent series, Will! I very much enjoyed learning about where our faith came from through your podcast. Thank you to both you and Robin for putting it together! I’m looking forward to the appendices.
