Next week I am going into school to "do" 'Baptism Today' with Year 4. I will use some Baptism clips downloaded from Teddington Baptist church who have a superb selection (watch the minister age!) and also some resources from RE:Quest which are excellent - even an overview introduction to Baptist history, albeit a bit too precise, with photos of Loughwood Meeting House, Taunton and Metropolitan Tab.
This annoyed me though...
A Baptist church is led by a Senior Minister, who is normally a man. You may have other Ministers with different jobs, it depends on the size of the church.
You also have Deacons, who often look after the church building and the money that comes into the church. Money is given largely by the members of the church each week.
In my church we have a Leadership Council who look after the people and what they believe. In most churches these people would be called Elders.
Senior ministers are usually men, it is true, but most Baptist churches don't have a senior minister and plenty don't have a minister full stop.
In most Baptist churches deacons do what this person's Elders do.
I am assuming this is a (laudible) attempt at asking a young person to tell the story, and I'm sure it is a correct reflection of thier experience. It's just not quite accurate - and so loads of people are fed a not-quite story that gets more "not-quited" over time. Sigh.
