We live in a world in which the church inhabits a deep existential anxiety about its future, feels pushed to the edges of society and doesn’t deal well with its marginalisation. Kosuke Koyama’s writing most notably in his famous Three mile an Hour God acts as an antidote for the preoccupation with speed, size and the spectacular - “God walks slowly because He is love.”

 

In The God Who Walks Slowly, missiologist Ben Aldous explores how Koyama’s theology encourages an approach to mission which truly reflects the rhythm, pace, vision and surrender of Christ.

Dr Benjamin Aldous is the Principal Officer for Evangelism & Mission for Churches Together in England.

"Ben Aldous has, in this book, modelled for us what it means to listen to and learn from God's work in mission with people from other parts of the world. The posture with which he engages Kosuke Koyama's life and work is exemplary. The lessons he draws from Koyama's ministry are profound. His writing is engaging. Our missiology will be greatly enriched even if the only lesson we learn is that mission often takes a long time. The God Who Walks Slowly has a great deal to speak to our time-pressed fast-paced societies. It comes with my utmost recommendation." -- Harvey Kwiyani, Church Mission Society, UK
