Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Why and How of Foreign Missions The first edition of this book was prepared in 1908 in compliance with a request of the Young People´s Missionary Movement for a succinct statement of the modern foreign missionary enterprise for busy people and mission study classes. About sixty thousand copies have been sold and many hundreds of mission study classes and summer conferences have used it in their courses. As the demand continues and as recent events have made many changes, not only in statistics but in problems and, to some extent at least, in points of view, this revised edition has been prepared. The design is to present the motives that prompt to foreign missionary effort, the objects that are sought, the methods of handling funds, the kind of persons appointed, the work that they are doing, the difficulties they encounter, the spirit they manifest, and the changing world conditions caused not only by the religious but by the political, commercial, and intellectual movements of our age and by the World War. Those who are familiar with the author´s larger book, The Foreign Missionary (Revell), will note that some of the material for this book has been taken from that volume.
