Book excerpt: This introduces us to one of the most unassuming leaders of the church in South Africa during the apartheid era. Joe Wing's influential leadership in the United Congregational Church of Southern Africa, the Witwatersrand Council of Churches, the Church Unity Commission, the South African Council of Churches, and the Federal Theological Seminary placed him at the heart of the Christian struggle for justice in society and unity in the Church. This volume includes a biographical essay by Steve de Gruchy, a reflection on his theology and ecclesiology by Desmond van der Water, and shorter essays in tribute to him from a range of authors. Throughout these essays, the faith and commitment of this servant of God bears testimony to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the most difficult of circumstances. His was indeed an undaunted spirit.
