Product Description
In
Peoples of the Buddhist World , researcher and author Paul Hattaway profiles almost 250 Buddhist people groups throughout the world, illustrated with 467 superb full-color photographs. In addition, various experts have contributed 13 articles on various aspects of Buddhism to help readers pray more effectively. Hattaway has managed to portray the Buddhist world in a personal way, drawing on his experience of more than 15 years living and working in Asia to powerfully communicate the heart beat of Jesus Christ for Buddhist people. This book follows on in the style of Hattaway's Operation China and several other prayer books he has authored in recent years.
Peoples of the Buddhist World takes the reader on a journey through the heart of Buddhism, featuring people groups and articles on 18 countries like China, Mongolia, Japan, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Bhutan, Nepal, India, Russia, Sri Lanka and others. This is the first ever book produced that profiles all the Buddhist peoples of the world, and introduces dozens of Buddhist tribes and people groups that have never appeared on mission lists before. This book is a must for all Christians interested in the advance of God's kingdom on the earth, and is sure to become a classic.
Special Features:
Individual people profiles.
Helpful short articles from various perspectives help to understand Buddhist thinking and culture. Divided into daily prayer sections.
Colourful and interesting.
"Not only do we get a good overview of the various people groups but intertwined we get rich, helpful information about the different strands of Buddhism ... this is for informed praying"
Chris Wigram , National Director, OMF International (UK)
