Unhomed

Using the image of being ""at-home"" or ""unhomed,"" Samson Uytanlet traces the narrative of the apostle Paul through Acts. This study provokes and challenges Christians today to rethink biblically where we really are at home, challenging us to hospitality, costly discipleship, and living in confident hope. I thoroughly recommend this stimulating book. Paul Barker, PhD Visiting Lecturer, Seminari Theoloji Malaysia Bishop, Anglican Diocese of Melbourne, Australia This book beautifully highlights how Paul's encounter with Christ redefined his understanding of power, status, and belonging - principles that resonate powerfully with today's Christians, especially those in ministry. This is more than an academic work, it is a call for every believer to embrace the journey of being unhomed as a way of experiencing the fullness of God's presence. Melchor C. Go, DMin Chancellor, Asian Theological Seminary, Philippines This volume is a significant addition to the growing literature on diaspora based on biblical, historical, and autobiographical records. It is not to be kept in dark and dusty bookshelves! Samson Uytanlet's work deserves serious study! Sadiri Joy Tira, DMiss, DMin Diaspora Missiology Specialist, Jaffray Centre for Global Initiatives, Ambrose University, Canada The Christian life is one of having to come home to God through Christ and becoming a pilgrim. This double movement of the Christian life has been grounded by Samson Uytanlet in Luke's Acts narrative of the life and mission of Paul. This book is an important challenge to the contemporary church. Charles Ringma, PhD Emeritus Professor, Regent College, Canada Research Professor, Asian Theological Seminary, Philippines
