Walls, Andrew F.

The Cross-Cultural Process in Christian History Studies in the Transmission and Appropriation of Faith Andrew F. Walls - U.S.A. Orbis Books 2002 - 284tr. paperback, illustration 24cm

Walls shows how the demographic transformation of the church has brought us to a new ""Ephesian moment"". The church is challenged as never before to become one global body with its many cultural and ethnic members contributing their gifts. Former patterns of domination need to be superseded. His seer's eyes probe beneath the surface to bring the reader fresh insights into Pentecostalism, African Traditional Religion, and the ironic ways in which the Western missionary movement often accomplished things--both for good and for ill--that its agents never dreamed of.
