It Shouldn't Happen to a Missionary (All Nations Booklets)

The preface is written by a former tutor of Alf Cooper's, Martin Goldsmith who is quite correct in saying that this book is a good laugh and is easy to read. Nevertheless, it doesn't lack good spiritual lessons. Personally I found Cooper's consistent habit of early morning prayer a fine example to follow.Cooper takes us through his experiences and beliefs which led him from existensialist-humanist-Marxist to Pentecostal Anglican vicar. Throughout the book I found it difficult to know whether to side with him or not, especially, for example, on page 60 where modern-day prophecies are being made.This book can be read at a fast pace and is quite enjoyable, especially where he writes about church planting and evangelism activities in Montserrat and Chile.Apologies: I have not mentioned Jane Collins, the co-author, as this review refers to the MARC Publishers version of this book.
