The volumes in this series augment his distinguished reputation by bringing to light his many unpublished materials and hard-to-locate printed articles. These books--encompassing theology, anthropology, history, area studies, religion, and ethnohistory--broaden the contours of the discipline.\u003cbr\u003eThis volume contains two manuscripts. The first, The Integrating Gospel, combines a historical ethnolinguistic study of Fijian language, an examination of Fijian culture patterns in interaction with the church, and Tippett's own firsthand experience as a communicator of the gospel to specific receptors at a specific place and point in time. From this, Tippett is able to extrapolate broader ideas on contextualization and methods of gospel transmission.\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Christian: Fiji 1835-67\u003c\/i\u003e, Tippett addresses the establishment of the Christian church and the spread of Christianity in Fiji, with special attention to Ratu Cakobau. In this brief but in-depth study, Tippett presents a strong case against the understanding that Fijian conversions to Christianity were primarily political, as he offers evidence of the genuine religious and spiritual experiences behind these conversions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Doug Priest\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0878084800\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780878084807\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William Carey Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Doug Priest","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443733999871,"sku":"9780878084807","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f9b748a9-61c8-40c3-b250-c5c414548f5f.jpg?v=1777207470","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-integrating-gospel-and-the-doug-priest-9780878084807","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
