The Serampore Form of Agreement: A Commentary (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781774841655)

Along with William Carey's Enquiry, The Serampore Form of Agreement (SFA) laid the foundation of the modern missionary movement. The Enquiry recovered the Great Commission as a duty of the church and outlined a practical agenda for its fulfillment. The SFA provided a philosophy and a guide for missionary practice on the field. Both works move boldly from theological first principles to urgent implementation.

This commentary on the SFA provides another volume in the William Ward Project begun in 2023 to commemorate the bicentenary of the author's death. Each Statement of the SFA is analyzed by international scholars whose global dispersion and varied denominational commitments give testimony to the continued relevance of this seminal document.
