Missio Alliance Essential Reading List One of Seedbed's 10 Notable
Books The gospel of Jesus has not always been good news for Native
Americans. The history of North America is marred by atrocities
committed against Native peoples. Indigenous cultures were erased
in the name of Christianity. As a result, to this day few Native
Americans are followers of Jesus. However, despite the far-reaching
effects of colonialism, some Natives have forged culturally
authentic ways to follow the way of Jesus. In his final work,
Richard Twiss provides a contextualized Indigenous expression of
the Christian faith among the Native communities of North America.
He surveys the painful, complicated history of Christian missions
among Indigenous peoples and chronicles more hopeful visions of
culturally contextual Native Christian faith. For Twiss,
contextualization is not merely a formula or evangelistic strategy,
but rather a relational process of theological and cultural
reflection within a local community. Native leaders reframe the
gospel narrative in light of post-colonization, reincorporating
traditional practices and rituals while critiquing and correcting
the assumptions of American Christian mythologies. Twiss gives
voice to the stories of Native followers of Jesus, with
perspectives on theology and spirituality plus concrete models for
intercultural ministry. Future generations of Native followers of
Jesus, and those working crossculturally with them, will be
indebted to this work.
A New Uprising for God's Glory In this captivating chronicle of the
Native American story, Richard Twiss of the Rosebud Lakota/Sioux
sifts through myth and legend to reveal God's strategy for the
nation's host people. With wit, wisdom and passion, Twiss shows
God's desire to use the cultures of First Nations peoples--in all
their mystery, color and beauty--to break through to those involved
in New Age mysticism, Eastern religions, even Islam. One Church,
Many Tribes is a rallying cry for the Church to work as one so that
the lost may learn to walk in life with beauty, along the path of
the Waymaker.

"The following excursion was undertaken for several reasons: the
first of which was, that though I had been many times in Paris
before, yet I had not once been there since the Revolution, and I
was desirous of seeing how far a residence of a few years in France
might be practicable and agreeable; secondly, a Counter-Revolution,
or, at least, some violent measures were expected, and I was
willing to be there at the time, if possible; and lastly, I wanted
to examine the gardens near Paris."
Due to the very old age and scarcity of this book, many of the
pages may be hard to read due to the blurring of the original text.
Richard Twiss' "A Tour in Ireland in 1775", published in the
following year, was one of the most controversial books of its
period. It was based on his experiences of a five-month stay in the
country. It enraged the Irish public through its unflattering
representation of Ireland and its inhabitants. Since its
publication it has been widely quoted as a contemporary source for
Irish life, though generally cited in a negative context. Although
a bestseller in its day it has not been reprinted since. This new
edition includes the full collection of poems written in opposition
to the book, together with contemporary illustrations of the sites
and views visited by Twiss during his tour.
