TO ORDER

BACK COVER:
Soon we will be in the third Christian millennium. How does the faith of Jesus look two thousand years on? For all its struggles, and despite areas of decline, it is remarkably lively. This Handbook is a portrait of the worldwide followers of Jesus Christ in the last quarter of the twentieth century. It is an up-to-date picture, looking back only enough to understand the present context. And it is a portrait rather than a survey: concentrating on ideas, trends and movements rather than statistics.

"This collection of brief essays by some of the most renowned members of Christian denominations around the world presents, in a manageable format and without sectarian bias, important information about modern Christianity. After some basic discussions of the Christian life in today's worldparticularly in light of the growth of the 'global village' and the rise of secularismthe essays outline the regional differences in the practice and influence of Christianity and raise practical questions of how the gospel message is applicable to contemporary life. Clearly written and a continuous joy to read. . ."Booklist
