The Story of Third World Missionaries in the South Pacific


This updated version of Tippett's 1977, The Deep Sea Canoe, describes a significant but often overlooked aspect of the expansion of Christianity in the South Pacific, that of South Sea Island believers who carried the gospel from one island to another in their deep sea canoes. It is a well-researched study by one who knew the islands and their people, a man known by the Fijians as one who spoke their language.

Author Biography

The author of numerous articles and books, including Church Growth and the Word of God and Introduction to Missiology, Dr. Tippett died in Canberra in 1988. The legacy of his writings, in English and in Fijian, will live on for years to come.
