Musing with Marc Minter

This is where I publish my pastoral writings and academic work, as well as some stories, thoughts, and public arguments.

Thanks for reading MarcMinter’s Substack!

In 2002, I began my journey into a life of public Christian vocation. I joined a parachurch ministry with the mission of evangelism from the platform of events in partnership with local churches. For a decade, my job was public Christian witness through speaking in both large and small settings.

In 2012, my public and vocational Christian life turned more decidedly toward the local church. I joined the staff, as a pastor, of a middle-sized Evangelical and Baptist church in North Texas. Two years later, I became the senior pastor of a small and rural Baptist church in East Texas. As a pastor my job has been local church shepherding and leading, maintaining a public Christian witness through preaching, teaching, and writing.

My academic interests are heavily influenced by my pastoral philosophy and ecclesiology (i.e., doctrine of the church); specifically, historical theology, Baptist history, Baptist distinctives, and Baptist political theology.

I regularly produce content for my congregation, for use in other churches, for public engagement with matters related to Christianity and church-life, and for academic engagement with primary sources and contemporary discussions. This Substack is where I both publish and archive most of my content.
