Christian Gospel and Earthen Vessels: Mennonite Brethren Missions in Japan: The Early Years was prepared for translation and publication in Japanese as part of the 70th Anniversary of the Japan Mennonite Brethren (MB) Conference. Part One provides a brief overview of the history of Christian mission efforts. Part Two presents summaries of some of the major developments in the early years of the MB mission in Japan: the joint MCC/MB Osaka Service Center; adoption of mission strategies; the ministry of Rev. Kyoichi Kitano; the beginning and end of the cooperative Osaka Biblical Seminary; and two administrative reviews. A review of the author’s life is appended. The Japanese version is under the title, Mennonite Brethren Mission History in Japan: hokubei MB ni yoru nihon senkyou—sono rekishi to hyouka. Robert Enns, Ph.D., and Robert Lee, Ph.D., are listed as authors.
