  • Mission Histories

    We look at some histories of missionaries, looking at how they encountered the other. This week we will look at some missionaries from different traditions to see what they can teach us.

    I will use material from my book Mission from the Perspective of the Other, so for more detail, read chapters 4-6 of that book (it's very good).
