Descriere: In "Issues In Missiology, Volume III," Dr. Patton relates his personal experiences in translating the entire Bible into the Sranantongo language. The translation has been used in radio and television broadcasts, two Bible Institutes, Bible commentaries, discipleship mater-ials, and tracts impacting the country of Suriname. He outlines the need for the correct foundational text, the proper methods of translation, and awareness of pitfalls that await the missionary translator. He concludes his book by appealing for many workers to reach the millions without the Word of God in their mother tongue, knowing the fields "are white already to harvest" (John 4:35).

Religion in Plain View: Public Aesthetics of American Display
8, A revelatory critique of public display in the United States. In Religion in Plain View, Sally M. Promey analyzes religion's visible saturation of American public space and the histories that shaped this exhibitionary aesthetics. In street art, vehicle d?cor, signs, monuments, architecture, zoning policy, and more, Promey exposes American display's merger of evangelicalism, capitalism, and imperialism. From this convergence, display materializes a distinctly American drive to advertise, claim territory, invalidate competitors, and fabricate a tractable national heritage. Charting this aesthetics' strategic work as a Protestant technology of White nation formation, Religion in Plain View offers a dynamic critique of the ways public display perpetuates deeply ingrained assumptions about the proper shape of life and land in the United States.
