Loving the Church . . . Blessing the Nations: Pursuing the Role of Local Churches in Global Mission
ISBN: 9780830856992 / Angielski / Miękka / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rediscovering the role God designed for the church in mission is a critical issue facing the missions movement today. That role is to glorify God by planting churches among every tongue, tribe, and nation. Planting churches amid unreached peoples is a complex process. It calls forth every ministry gift and the contribution of every believer. Imagine a businessman, a construction worker, a schoolteacher, and an engineer all working together to support the development of a local church amongst an unreached people group in another part of the world. Most Christians will not leave home and go...

The Mongwande Snake Cult: A Case Study in Contextualization
ISBN: 9783941750883 / Angielski / Miękka / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this book Sveinung Johnson Moen presents a very fascinating subject, a snake cult among the Mongwande people in the northern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Going beyond a mere anthropological description, he brings the subject in relation to the snake concept in Scripture and reflects on the opportunities and fallacies of missionary ministry. Even though his experiences go back to the 1950s (that is the end of the colonial period), his reflections on contextualization situate him rather in the first decade of the twenty-first century. Sveinung Moen draws the reader into an...

The God Who Makes Himself Known: The Missionary Heart of the Book of Exodus
ISBN: 9780830826292 / Angielski / Miękka / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Lord's commitment to make himself known throughout the nations is the overarching missionary theme of the Bible and the central theological concern of Exodus. Countering scholarly tendencies to fragment the text over theological difficulties, Ross Blackburn contends that Exodus should be read as a unified whole, and that an appreciation of its missionary theme in its canonical context is of great help in dealing with the difficulties that the book poses. For example, how is Exodus 6:3 best understood? Is there a tension between law and gospel, or mercy and judgment? How should we...

Many programs for outreach, discipleship, and spiritual disciplines are available at any bookstore and on countless websites. We assume that we already know the nature of the Great Commission and the appropriate methods of carrying it out. But Michael Horton contends that it too often becomes our mission instead of God's. At a time when churches are zealously engaged in writing up mission statements and strategic plans, he argues that we must ask ourselves anew whether we are ambassadors, following the script we've been given, or building our own kingdoms with our own blueprint. Pastors,...

In The Famerfield Mission, Fiona Vernal recounts the history of an African Christian community on South Africa's troubled Eastern Cape frontier. Forged in the secular world of war, violence, and colonial dispossession and subjected to grand evangelical aspirations and social engineering, Farmerfield's heterogeneous mix of former slaves and displaced Africans from polities beyond the borders of the Cape Colony entered the powerful ideological arena of anti-slavery humanitarianism and evangelicalism. As a farm, an African residential site amid a white community, and a Christian mission...

The Art of Evangelism
ISBN: 9781610976640 / Angielski / Miękka / 118 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Description: Following his best seller, The Logic of Evangelism, this book takes further Professor Abraham's belief that evangelism should involve taking the whole gospel to the whole person. The book reveals his understanding that evangelism is more than winning people for Christ--it is a process of discipleship, introducing new converts to all the riches of the Christian faith. Of course, anyone can undertake evangelism, but some do it with a slapstick attitude, as though they were throwing paint on canvas. In this book, Professor William Abraham declares that evangelism is an art....
