Religions and mission in the Arab world
JUNE 2008: new mission book

With a carefully suppressed modicum of pride I can present the first book with articles that have first appeared here on our webzine. The book is titled Doing Mission in the Arab World. It is the first in the Grassroots series of Interserve.

You are used to reading our articles online, but in case you like something on the bookshelves as well (like I do, to the dismay of my family members...) contact your nearest Interserve office; their addresses can be found HERE.
