Baptist Identity and the Ecumenical Future should be required reading for Baptist leaders.
--Neville George Callam, General Secretary and Chief Executive Officer of the Baptist World Alliance[Harmon's] work rests on the genuine hope of finding common ground across the body of Christ, ideally even the recovery of a cooperative Christian community that could see itself as part of one body, even as many denominations
--Courtney Pace "The Pacific Journal of Baptist Research "Harmon's Baptist Identity and the Ecumenical Future is a work that engages the current status of Baptist life in the wider context of the current ecclesial and ecumenical situation. It is not only the ambition of this book but its execution that establishes Harmon as the most accomplished Baptist ecumenist working in America today, and perhaps one of the most insightful ecumenists of any stripe, and it is thereby worthy of consideration not only by Baptists but also by all interested in the history and current state of ecumenical discussion.
--Kimlyn J. Bender "Christian Scholar's Review "Harmon displays an impressive background of reading and his participation in international ecumenical dialogue means he is well placed to argue the case for Baptist enthusiastic participation in our common ecumenical future. This is a book well worth reading.
--Keith G. Jones "Journal of European Baptist Studies "Harmon's book is an achievement to be celebrated. Pastors, seminar-ians, and Baptists interested in pursuing the unity described by Jesus in John 17 would all profit from careful study of its contents. What is more important, implementation of the practices it commends would be a gift to the church.
--Cameron H. J. Jorgenson "American Baptist Quarterly "A careful, thorough, and detailed study
--John E. Colwell "Baptist Quarterly "An important work in Baptist studies
--ChoiceHarmon's book offers the research and wisdom of a Baptist thinker at the forefront of ecumenical work. His methodical analysis of Baptist history and ecumenical documents, coupled with practical constructive proposals for congregations to change, has made this book original, essential, and necessary to the future of Baptist life.
--Spencer Miles Boersma "Reading Religion "A promising way forward for Baptists
--David E. Wilhite "The Pacific Journal of Baptist Research "Harmon has done Baptists a service in offering us an understanding of tradition which frames it as an invitation to conversation and an opportunity to grow.
