As any Festschrift, this book certainly contains both the academic reflections and the personal recollections on the life and work of Colonel Doner. Perhaps what makes this Festschrift a little more unusual is that it is written about a man who not only thought, spoke, or wrote – though he did all these things too – but is written in honor of a man who is primarily a man of action. Colonel’s book “The Samaritan Strategy: A New Agenda for Christian Activism” clearly expresses Colonel’s philosophy of life in writing. But long before the book was written, Colonel was already telling the world what he thought by his work.
