Religions and mission in the Arab world
SEPTEMBER 2008: Vivienne Stacey

This issue of our magazine is fully focused on Ms Vivienne Stacey, a lifelong missionary in the Muslim World. You will find her major writings in this issue on our frontpage. If you click the button Vivienne Stacey you find many other articles by her hand; we will continue to upload new articles there, so keep coming back!

This week we received the news that our sister Shirley Madany has passed away; her husband, Rev. Bassam Madany, regularly contributes to our magazine. We wish him comfort of God in the certainty that his beloved wife is now with our Lord. Let us pray for Bassam.

We have also made dozens of articles by Bassam and Shirley Madany available in the past weeks. Under the button Madany's you find them.

Please let us know how we can improve St Francis Magazine so that it serves your needs in mission in the Arab World!

Rev Dr John Stringer

The Arabic Language: history and context

This article deals with the Arabic language and its history, Modern Standard Arabic, colloquial Arabic, political and religious disagreements about the Arabic language, and much more. It is actually a chapter of a PhD thesis by Jos M. Strengholt, Gospel in the Air (Zoetermeer, 2008). Very useful for us here in the Arab World. Download here. It may take a while, the document is 2.4 MB.
