There are some really good discussions on Baptist identity springing up around the blogosphere; in particular Brodie’s blogpost, A Reductionist Baptist Identity and Andy’s What’s Baptist About Baptists? and Pete’s How Baptist are Baptists?
Participating in these discussions has reminded me that my own series of blogposts on Baptist identity remains tellingingly unfinished. You can read up on the series thus far,
Baptist Ecclesiology: Why Bother?
Baptist Ecclesiology – The Odd One Out
Baptist Ecclesiology – The Reaction
Baptist Ecclesiology – My Church Planting Experience

Baptist Theology 101
The Power To Do Something About Contemporary Worship
Ecclesiology And Collective Action Problems

However, it’s revelaling to me that I seem to keep coming back to this issue and that the blogposts above almost present a coherent train of thought on the subject.
One of my personal reading goals for 2007 is to reread McClendon’s Systematic Theology, which interestingly enough has already appeared in a few email discussion in the past week alone.
