ISBN: 9789004162334 / Angielski / Twarda / 608 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The growth of Christianity in Africa during the twentieth century is one of the most fascinating shifts in the history of religions.

Yet Tanzanian Adventism also exemplifies an important phenomenon which has been given little attention so far - the...

The Ideal of the Self-Governing Church
ISBN: 9789004091887 / Angielski / Twarda / 293 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is part of current missiological orthodoxy that newly created churches should obtain independence from cross-cultural missionaries as soon as possible.

The study begins with an examination of Henry Venn's, the famous CMS Secretary, commitment to self-supporting, self-propagating and self-governing churches. Was he a lonely figure...
