“Andrew Walls may be the most important person you don’t know.”
Andrew F. Walls may be the most important person to read if you are interested in missions, missiology, missions history, World Christianity, or the role of African Christianity within World Christianity.
NB: items about Andrew Walls are in a separate bibiliography
We have a number of these, except for the short articles in dictionaries and encyclopedias, and for the booklets. I’ve placed a +plus for the other ones I lack … and thus would like to add to my library. Note that this bibliography is not exhaustive. If you know of an item I’ve missed, please let me (Joshua) know! I have not included any of his numerous book reviews, short notices, or any of the numerous pieces from different dates entitled “Bibliography on mission studies,” “Bibliography on world mission,” etc.)
