PETER COPE and MIKE WEST are Anglican priests who write from long careers in Industrial Mission, the largest single outreach programme of the churches in the second half of the twentieth century. Industrial chaplains went into workplaces and engaged in conversations about whatever was important to workers. The book describes the theology and methods they developed, theologies which stress that God is active in the world and might be experienced without complex religious language. Twenty-first century churches have much to learn from the insights of this contextualised and incarnational mission as they seek to respond to the Kingdom of God in the world.
