Baptist History sites
Through the years God has given me the opportunity to visit many Baptist history sites and research many others. I firmly believe the thing that has caused so many Baptist churches to go astray is the fact that they have forgotten their heritage, Biblical and Historic. Sadly even some of these historic churches have forgotten where they once stood. Pastor Jim
