 | For the Nations: Essays Evangelical and Public by John H. Yoder
Buy new: $27.00 / Used from: $21.99 The book of all books. I'm not even sure what that means. Insane thinker. Where did these ideas come from? Probably the 16th century rad. ref. I wonder why so many ignore this crucial moment in church history? Too dangerous I suppose.
