ISBN: 9780199767441 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

There has indeed been a radical shift, both in the world in which the church does mission and within the church's own consciousness of the goodness and even holiness of that world." These words from one of the... A collection of essays that demonstrates that to be effective in the twenty-first century, mission must be prophetic as it encounters other cultures a...
