Doing Mission in the Arab World

Interserve has just published a book that was created on the basis of articles that appeared on our St Francis Magazine website. Lyn Weaich, Berys Nixon and I edited the book (but I take the blame, in the end...) and am quite happy with the result. Have a look for more information on Doing Mission in the Arab World.
