Reviews
The Classics of the Radical Reformation series was inaugurated to make available major seminal texts from the Radical Reformation. Karl Koop's Confessions of Faith in the Anabaptist Tradition is the eleventh volume in the series. It breaks new ground both in its subject matter and the span of time it documents. Perplexingly little attention has been paid by twentieth-century academics or church leaders to the Mennonite confessional tradition. Koop's masterful study documents this communal form of theologizing at an opportune time, when interest is rising in the development of Anabaptist thought beyond its first, formative generations.--John D. Rempel, Toronto Mennonite Theological Centre
