Já está disponível em português o livro que Parsons e eu escrevemos sobre Antônia Teixeira, filha do primeiro pastor Batista brasileiro. Além de contar a história traumatizante dela, o livro revela fatos desconhecidos sobre seu pai, Antônio Teixeira de Albuquerque. Link abaixo.

Leah Payne’s new book is just fantastic. – at Texas, USA
If you're looking for a book that "navigates through the intricacies of the history of #CCM, highlighting its deep connections to broader culture and politics in the U.S. & beyond," #GGRRTY could be for you. Grateful for these words from @JoaoB_Chaves, a scholar I greatly admire!

"Institutional myth-making is often at odds with care for vulnerable people." - @JoaoB_Chaves It's an 1894 #SBCtoo story but it seems so current. A fascinating conversation with the authors of Remembering Antonia Teixeira via @baptist_news. #ThisistheSBC youtube.com/watch?v=p2WjL1mp…
As a student, Antonia Teixeira was raped at the home of the Baylor U president. Her assailant was a relative of the president. She was shamed & discredited, and erased, to preserve the image of Baylor & SBC. It was 1894. An early #SBCtoo story. By Mikeal Parsons & @JoaoB_Chaves.
