In this book Sveinung Johnson Moen presents a very fascinating subject, a snake cult among the Mongwande people in the northern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Going beyond a mere anthropological description, he brings the subject in relation to the snake concept in Scripture and reflects on the opportunities and fallacies of missionary ministry. Even though his experiences go back to the 1950s (that is the end of the colonial period...

2004 wurde in Österreich die Evangelikale Akademie (EVAK) ins Leben gerufen. Zehn Jahre später wird eine Festschrift veröffentlicht, die einen kleinen Einblick in die Arbeit der Akademie geben soll. Am Anfang steht ein kurzer Rückblick auf die vergangenen zehn Jahre und die Würdigung eines Mitbegründers der EVAK. Anschließend wird auf die für Österreich typische Situation der Teilzeitpastoren mit Migrationshintergrund eingegangen und die Rolle...

This book brings together a passion for the church and a passion for global mission. It looks at the heart of the UK church, asking whether and how it beats for mission and explores the passion of the mission community, and asks how it involves the local church. You might be forgiven for expecting that the heart of church and the heart of mission would be interwoven and closely linked together, but that has not been the case. Two significant h...

Andrew Page glaubt, dass Bibellehre ein übernatürliches Ereignis sein kann. Andrew besuchte die London School of Theology und lebte zwanzig Jahre lang als Missionar in Österreich. Dort hat er für die ÖSM (Österreichische Studentenmission) und als Pastor in Innsbruck gearbeitet. Er sagt: "Zwei Feinde christlicher Gemeinden sind Bibellehre, die ohne viel biblischen Inhalt auskommt, und Bibellehre, die mehr eine Vorlesung als ein Ereignis ist." W...

Andrew Page believes that Bible teaching can be a supernatural event. A graduate of London School of Theology, Andrew was a missionary in Austria for 20 years, working with the Austrian Christian student movement (IFES) and later pastoring a church in Innsbruck. He says "Two enemies of Christian churches are Bible teaching with little biblical content and Bible teaching which is more a lecture than an event." If you agree with this, How to Tea...

Warum sollte ich mich mit dem christlichen Glauben befassen?" Weil Du selbst davon profitierst, wenn Du zum Glauben an Jesus kommst. Es gibt auch eine umfangreichere, nicht ganz einfache Antwort: Es geht bei diesem Glauben um die Beziehung zu Gott, und Beziehungen sind nicht immer einfach. Da gibt es manchmal Durststrecken und enttäuschte Erwartungen. Aber meine Zuneigungzu Gott kann sich gerade dann bewähren, wenn einer meiner Wünsche von Got...

In Europe one finds Christian communities and Muslim communities living in close proximity to each other. Muslims and Christians pass each other in the streets, stand next to each other waiting for the bus or metro, live next to one another in streets, share apartment buildings with each other, study in the same universities, have their lunches in the same business canteens, shop in the same shopping centres. Nevertheless, they are essentially...

Animismus ist, sehr vereinfacht gesagt, eine Form von Religion. Vieles deutet darauf hin, dass Animismus schon vor vielen tausend Jahren, am Beginn der Altsteinzeit, die Basis des religiösen Verhaltens der damals lebenden Menschen bildete. In der Gegenwart finden wir animistische Formen von Religion immer noch weit verbreitet in den vorwiegend von mündlicher Tradition bestimmten, schriftlosen Gesellschaften der Wildbeuter (Jäger und Sammler), ...

Handbook to Lothar Käser's Textbook "Animism - A Cognitive Approach". If we want to understand the animistic cognitive system we must focus particularly on its concept of man. Access to it can only be achieved by proceeding systematically. A basic prerequisite for this is a knowledge of the language spoken by the people whose culture is shaped by such an animistic system of thought. Incidentally acquired knowledge is not enough to give the out...

In recent decades foreign cultures have not just loomed large for Europeans seeking holiday destinations. Since the 1960s increasing numbers of professionals such as teachers, doctors, agronomists, and other professional workers and missionaries from Europe and America have been partnering local churches in Africa, Asia and Latin America whose fellowships are often very differently organised. When preparing these specialists, development agenc...

Thomas Schirrmacher argues that from the biblical teaching that man is the head of woman (1 Cor 11:3) the Corinthians had drawn the false conclusions that in prayer a woman must be veiled (11:4-6) and a man is forbidden to be veiled (11:7), and that the wife exists for the husband but not the husband for the wife (11:8-9). Paul, however, rejected these conclusions and showed in 11:10-16 why the veiling of women did not belong to God's commandm...

Christ" and "Quran" - these don't seem to fit together. and yet the Quran says a great deal about Jesus, the Bible, and Christians. This book tries to build bridges. The reader will chuckle at the original ideas and interpretations of some Quranic verses, and it becomes clear that this book was not written by an academic. These thoughts evolved throughout the course of many years of discussions with Muslims friends.Love and forgiveness are emp...

Europe has changed, not only because of the refugee flows of 2015, but first and foremost because of a fundamental political change of climate. The hopes that many had associated with a united and free Europe have given way to fears and insecurity, which in many cases have opened the door to populism and nationalism right up into the heart of government. Instead of hope, pessimism prevails inmany cases today, and fear shapes the social climate...

The present volume is dealing with the subject of dreams in an animistic culture, concentrating on the Karen people from Northern Thailand. The author has been a missionary in the area for many years. As he learned their language he could make an emic approach to their culture, so that instead of looking for Western-European concepts of dreaming he started strictly from the vocabulary the Karen use in this field of their respective local knowl...

To think Europe represents a challenge. A challenge that may seem foolish to take up, but which corresponds to a reality. Some great personalities accepted this challenge, just after World War II. It was really necessary to do something! As regards missiology, it took more than a half century to confront the task. It is time to meet our responsibilities. The gravity and extreme complexity of this challenge call for a deep awareness of the situ...
