Professional
Bender is perhaps best known for authoring The Anabaptist Vision in 1944. The Anabaptist Vision was a short essay intended to refocus the Anabaptists and Mennonites during the trying years of World War II by re-examining the religious movement's historical context. Anabaptists distinctives were summarized as:
- Discipleship is the essence of Christianity.
- Church as a community grows out of the central principle of newness of life.
- Love and nonresistance apply to all human relationships.
