Summary: John Howard Yoder, author of The Politics of Jesus, was best known for his writing on Christian pacifism. This volume-based on lectures recorded in 1973-shows he was a profound missiologist as well. Yoder weaves together biblical, theological, practical and interreligious reflections to think about mission beyond Christendom.
