ISBN: 9783039118144 / Angielski / Miękka / 590 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Protestant Church in China is growing very fast.

Four models serve as orientation: the Reformers Luther and Calvin and the theologians Bonhoeffer and Barth in the 20th century, with their vision of Christian faith and a humane society. The critical analysis of the missionary...

Sister Churches: American Congregations and Their Partners Abroad
ISBN: 9780199328208 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The growth of Christianity in the global South and the fall of colonialism in the middle of the twentieth century caused a crisis in Christian mission, as many southern Christians spoke out about indignities they had suffered and many northern Christians retreated from the global South. American Christians soon began looking for a fresh start, a path forward that was neither isolationist nor domineering. Out of this dream the ''sister church'' model of mission was born. Rather than western churches sending representatives into the ''mission field, '' they established...

ISBN: 9781845113360 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Settlements were a distinctive aspect of late-Victorian church life in which individual philanthropic Christians were encouraged to live and work in communities amongst the poor and set an example for the underprivileged through their own actions. Often overlooked by historians, settlements are of great value in understanding the values and culture of the 19th century.
Settlement missions were first conceived when Samuel Barnett, the incumbent of St Jude's, Whitechapel, in the East End of London, sought to introduce them as a major aspect of Victorian church life. Barnett argued that... Settlements were a distinctive aspect of late-Victorian church life in which individual philanthropic Christians were encouraged to live and work in c...

In the field, the confidence of the Assyrians proved difficult to gain, especially in competition with other missions: French...
