Mission : a plea for theological convictions

Notes: Cover title.; "[B]y Stuart Yarworth Blanch, Archbishop of York".; "This is the first of a new Forward Movement series of booklets of renewal and evangelism called CLUES and published in cooperation with the Office of Evangelism of the Executive Council of the Episcopal Church. At the Lambeth Conference of 1978, daily addresses by the Archbishop of York [Stuart Blanch] made a deep impression on all who were present. Long a leader in Anglican and ecumenical efforts for 'the re-evangelization of Britain', Dr. Blanch here shares some of the lessons learned in England and his own convictions about the conditions that must be met if evangelism anywhere is to have more than a limited effect". -- back cover.; "'Mission needs to be addressed to felt needs ... )it) will vary from place to place and from culture to culture. But it could be that mission is not so much a method as an attitude ... I am not concerned ... with how you do mission but why you do it ... I am making a plea for ... theological convictions'." -- inside front cover, page 2.; Contents: [Introduction] -- Some English Experiences -- A Call to the Nation -- A Call to Americans -- Mission is a Matter of Belief.
