I don't know if this will help or not, but I've studied the minutes for a "regular" Baptist Association in south-eastern Arkansas from about civil war time until 1890's or so. It seems that the churches which were a part of this association and still exist are now part of the Southern Baptist's. anne W ----- Original Message ----- From: Stephens <steph@groupz.net> To: <GAMADISO-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 05, 2000 5:46 PM Subject: Re: Hard-Shell vs Regualr Baptist Church > The term "hard-shell" is generally used to refer to more conservative > churches.

The term "hard-shell" is generally used to refer to more conservative churches. The term is used mostly by people who do not agree with the doctrine of those churches. The term "regular Baptist" is somewhat ambiguous. There are at least the following: Southern Baptist Convention (the largest protestant denomination in the United States), American Baptist Convention, National Baptist Convention, Freewill Baptists, etc. Heidi Streetman wrote: > > Greetings! > Could someone please explain the differences between "hard-shell" > and "regular" Baptist churches???
