DUNCAN, Graham A e MALULEKE, Tinyiko Sam. Through the past into the future: Jean-François Bill - pastor, activist, theologian 8 July 1934 -12 March 2005. Studia Hist. Ecc. [online]. 2016, vol.42, n.1, pp.105-123. ISSN 2412-4265. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2412-4265/2016/112.
Jean- Francois Bill was a significant church leader of the second half of the twentieth century. He was born, raised and educated in South Africa, and he lived, worked and died in South Africa. He possessed a multi-cultural identity. He had a rare academic ability but was no academic recluse. His varied and intensive ministry was marked by committed, responsible, constructive engagement. He was a convinced yet reasonable ecumenist with a powerful social conscience who offered a great deal to the field of theological education. He had a vision of a responsible church which was responsible in a practical way by working through the live issues of the day. This would be a church which would strive for authentic unity and be the leaven in the lump of the world.
