About this ebook
Communicating the Gospel Where Power and Fear Reign
Whether in New Age mysticism, occultism, Haitian voodooism, Chinese ancestor veneration, or Japanese Shintoism, animistic beliefs are widespread, even today. Gailyn Van Rheenen turns our attention to what Paul Hiebert called “the excluded middle,” the intermediate realm of spirits, ancestors, gods, and ghosts.
