While examining the many aspects that have characterized mission, indigenous Christianity, and colonialism in modern Africa, \u003cem\u003eThe Missionary Movement in Christian History \u003c\/em\u003ehas a far broader reach. Essays such as \"The Gospel as the Prisoner and Liberator of Culture\" reveal the paradoxes of the Christian movement as a whole in discussing how different primitive Mediterranean Christianity is from early Catholicism, from Celtic monasticism, from Reformation Protestantism, and from Nigerian Spirit Christianity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAndrew Walls shows how the central question for Christianity has always been one of identity in many different forms, a phenomenon revealed at each stage of its history by the missionary movement. What this means for theology, however, has hardly been explored. This is the subtext of Walls' work, providing extraordinary insights and successful counters to secular critiques of world Christianity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Walls\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1570750599\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781570750595\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Orbis Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/20\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Christianity Today Book Award - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristianity Today\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2007 pg. 63\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristianity Today\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2013 pg. 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristianity Today\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2014 pg. 70","brand":"Andrew Walls","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44047509487871,"sku":"9781570750595","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_953266ac-5e7d-4bbc-bef5-1d2b0f58cd8d.jpg?v=1684990622","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-missionary-movement-in-christian-andrew-walls-9781570750595","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
