God's People on the Move

Because of growing inequalities of wealth caused by unregulated economic globalization, political and ethnic conflicts, environmental degradation, instant communication, and viable means of transportation, more and more people are migrating than ever before. No countries or regions are immune from this reality. This collection of essays seeks to develop appropriate biblical and missiological responses to the issue of human migration and dislocation.
