Book Description
This masterful six-volume encyclopedia provides comprehensive, global coverage of religion, emphasizing larger religious communities without neglecting the world's smaller religious outposts. Religions of the World, Second Edition: A Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Beliefs and Practices is an extraordinary work, bringing together the scholarship of some 225 experts from around the globe. The encyclopedia's six volumes offer entries on every country of the world, with particular emphasis on the larger nations, as well as Indonesia and the Latin American countries that are traditionally given little attention in English-language reference works. Entries include profiles on religion in the world's smallest countries (the Vatican and San Marino), profiles on religion in recently established or disputed countries (Kosovo and Nagorno-Karabakh), as well as profiles on religion in some of the world's most remote places (Antarctica and Easter Island). Religions of the World is unique in that it is based in religion "on the ground," tracing the development of each of the 16 major world religious traditions through its institutional expressions in the modern world, its major geographical sites, and its major celebrations. Unlike other works, the encyclopedia also covers the world of religious unbelief as expressed in atheism, humanism, and other traditions.

They weren't superheroes. Some weren't even sure whether they were meant to be missionaries. But these ordinary men and women obeyed God's call to make disciples of all men. With great dedication and deep passion, they committed their lives to bring the gospel to the Asia Pacific, where an extraordinary God enabled and empowered them to carry out His mission of drawing generations of people to His saving grace. What made these men and women leave their homes for faraway lands in spite of their doubts, fears, and inadequacies? What made them keep sowing even when their message of salvation was rejected? Read their stories and discover the defining moments that transformed these ordinary men and women into God's faithful messengers on extraordinary missions.
