New English Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In English and Turkish. 136 p. The expected awakening in Turkey: A call to confession for the churches of Turkey.= Beklenen uyanis: Uyanis için Türkiye'deki kiliselere itiraf çagrisi. This country is still the largest 'unreached' country in the world. However, a spiritual awakening in the country is possible and spiritual growth in the church can happen. The Bible is very clear on what needs to take place in Turkey, and the remedy is not difficult. This exhortation is written for the churches in Turkey, it is the single most important document I have ever written, and I truly believe that the life of the church and the nation depends on your individual response to this Biblical mandate, along with the response of your local church, and the churches in Turkey as a whole. Many have wondered if there is a real and present curse upon Turkey. We will look at the one obstacle that is hindering the church from spiritual and numerical growth and God's remedy to lift this apparent curse.

New English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. 593 p. "During the 38 years of its existence Bosphorus University has perpetuated the cultural traditions it inherited from Robert College, and it is generally considered to be one of the top undergraduate institutions in the world, with outstanding graduate programs in most fields other than medicine and law. Though it is a Turkish state university, the language of instruction in almost all courses is English; the majority of its faculty have doctorates from American universities and most of its outstanding students go on to do graduate studies at universities in the U. S. Our students come from every province of Turkey and from more than sixty other countries, for Bosphorus University is a cultural beacon that shines across national boundaries and internal political divisions, distinguished by the diversity of its student body and faculty and its tolerance of ethnic, religious, and cultural differences. And so my book will examine the ways in which Robert College and Bosphorus and Bosphorus University have been a bridge of culture between what orientalists have called East and West.
