ODDVAR STEN RONSEN is an international consultant in Christian integral mission related to microfinance. He holds an MTh in Theology from London School of Theology, an MSc in Business Studies from Warwick University and a BA (Hons) in Economics from Manchester University. Prior to his theological studies and engagements in Christian mission he held senior management positions in industry, government and financial institutions.
This fine and important study provides readers with a first-class treatment of the role of microfinance in Christian mission. Ronsen is very well placed to write this, as someone with long experience and strong expertise in microfinance. He has given us a thoughtful and engaging book which locates microfinance within a holistic view of Christian mission, rooted in the Lausanne Movement's concern for integral mission. He also provides two excellent in-depth case studies of the strengths and challenges of Christian microfinance in developing world contexts. This book will inform, engage, provoke and inspire readers: I commend it most warmly. Steve Walton Professor of New Testament, St Mary's University, Twickenham, London, UK
