208,95 kr. International travel has the potential to expand our horizons, inspire our imaginations, and rejuvenate our souls. But to be done well, it takes detailed planning and expert guidance. Before You Go Overseas offers a one-stop shop for everyone's travel needs, distilling decades of travel experience into one comprehensive book. Whereas most travel books emphasize one component of travel, Before You Go Overseas divides every aspect of it into clear and manageable sections, such as how to set a budget, coordinate logistics, manage risk, adjust expectations, overcome jet lag, prepare spiritually, and stay safe. Abounding with personal travel stories, Before You Go Overseas reveals secret travel tips, offers excellent travel advice, and pulsates with a contagious enthusiasm for everything related to travel. Conveniently divided into six parts, Before You Go Overseas guides readers as they imagine what kind of traveler they want to be (Part 1), as they design their travel experience (Part 2), as they consider the cultural components of travel (Part 3), as they fall into the rhythm of being overseas (Part 4), as they synchronize in mind, body, and soul (Part 5), and as they return home to process all they learned, discovered, and experienced (Part 6).

Not only was Jesus born in Asia, but in the early years of the church Christianity found fertile soil in Africa and soon extended to East Asia as well. In this brief introduction to world Christian history, Derek Cooper explores the development of Christianity across time and the continents. Guiding readers to places like Iraq, Ethiopia and India, Scandanavia, Brazil and Oceania, he reveals the fascinating-and often surprising-history of the church.
