Here We Stand - Where Nazarenes Fit in the Religious Marketplace

Take a look under 'Churches' in the yellow pages of any large-city telephone directory. What you'll get is an idea of the extreme diversity of religious groups in today's society . Add this proliferation to the widespread notion that 'all religions are simply different roads leading to the same place, ' and you may wonder how many religions justify their existence.In this well-documented examination of various religious beliefs, authors Wes Tracy and Stan Ingersol help Nazarenes gain a greater appreciation for their own faith heritage through a clearer understanding of where they fit on today's often frenzied religious landscape.
