Why are Christians from many traditions discovering Anabaptism?
What are they finding inspirational and challenging in the Anabaptist vision? How can this 500-year-old 'voice from the margins' speak to followers of Jesus today?
The Naked Anabaptist is a straightforward introduction to Anabaptism. Written out of the British and Irish context, it explains why Christians here, and in other nations adjusting to the realities of post-Christendom, are turning to the Anabaptist tradition for resources.

The Naked Anabaptist offers a frank and unadorned account, uncovering its blemishes as well as highlighting its attractions.
