Black and white lantern slide of street barbers, Canton, China, c. 1905-14. The long queue, or braid, of the man on the left suggests the image is from before 1912, after which the style was considered outmoded or a sign of support for the old regime. (CSWC47/LS1/57) #PhotoFriday

Doug Liaoโ€™s article focuses on the Prachaniyom (โ€˜Popularโ€™) Version of the Bible in Thai, which adopted the translation principle of dynamic equivalence โ€” but ultimately failed to receive the popular embrace that its name promised. #bibletranslation 6/6 www.euppublishing.com/doi/full/10....

I first presented this paper on city #lament, #CCM and a grassroots theology at @uniofstandrews.bsky.social. Glad that this has now been published while I am a staff here, and at @cswcedinburgh.bsky.social

A group of women carrying bundles on their heads can be seen in the distance in this tinted slide of a path through the Okoyong forest, Calabar (Nigeria). The Scottish Missionary Mary Slessor visited the Okoyong forest people in June 1888. (CSWC47/LS2/24) #PhotoFriday
Jamaican Bush Hut, Jamaica, ca.1875-ca.1940. The Scottish Missionary Society sent missionaries to Jamaica in 1800. Two of the three died within weeks of arrival and a second group travelled to Jamaica in 1824 to instruct slaves on local plantations. (CSWC47/LS11/38) #PhotoFriday
