Malkhaz Songulashvili, former Archbishop of the Evangelical Baptist Church of Georgia (EBCG), provides a pioneering, exacting, and sweeping history of Georgian Baptists. Utilizing archival sources in Georgian, Russian, German, and English--translating many of these crucial documents for the first time into English--he recounts the history of the EBCG fromits formation in 1867 to the present.While the particular story of Georgian Baptists merits telling in its own right, and not simplyas a feature of Russian religious life, Songulashvili employs GeorgianBaptists asasustained case study on the convergence of religion and culture. The interaction of Eastern Orthodox, Western Protestant, and Russian dissenting religious traditions--mixed into the political cauldron of Russian occupation of a formerly distinct eastern European culture--led to a remarkable experiment in Christian free-church identity.
Evangelical Christian Baptists of Georgia allows readers to peer through the lens of intercultural studies to see the powerful relationships among politics, religion, and culture in the formation of Georgian Baptists, andtheir blending of Orthodox tradition into Baptist life to craft a unique ecclesiology, liturgy, and aesthetics.
