$64.99Tackle Key Questions from the Past Two Decades in this Fully Updated Edition
Engage with the latest scholarship on the biblical theology of mission and missional hermeneutics with Christopher J. H. Wright’s classic text-now fully revised and updated!
Most Christians would agree that the Bible provides a basis for mission. But Christopher Wright boldly maintains that there is a missional basis for the Bible itself. The entire Bible is generated by and is all about God’s mission. In order to understand the Scriptures, we need a missional hermeneutic, an interpretive perspective in sync with the beating heart of its great mission.

*Who God is
*What he has called his people to be and do
*How the nations fit into God’s missionIn this revised edition of The Mission of God, Wright extends his classic discussion to consider the ways that the conversation on missional hermeneutics has developed since its original publication.

Prioritizing The Church In Missions
$21.99Encourage Long-Term Faithfulness in Missions with a Biblically Informed Strategy That Recenters the Church
The church is the origin, means, and end of missions. Scripture calls on missionaries to start and strengthen churches where new believers–and more missionaries–can grow. But today, many Christians downplay the role of the church in favor of pragmatism and parachurch ministries, weakening the missions cause.
In this brief guide, pastors John Folmar and Scott Logsdon share their decades of experience working as pastors in Muslim countries. Showing how healthy churches are essential for fulfilling the Great Commission, they teach biblical ecclesiology and missiology with wisdom and real-world advice from the field. They also caution readers against movement-driven missions, theological minimalism, and other techniques that replace the church’s God-given roles of equipping, training, and sending missionaries. Offering an effective, biblical strategy for global evangelism, Prioritizing the Church in Missions helps pastors and churches not only make Christ known throughout the world but ensure that God’s word is preserved long after missionaries leave.
*Accessible Guide on Ecclesiology and Missiology: Explores the biblical role of the church in equipping, training, and sending qualified missionaries as well as the dangers of unhealthy missions practices
*Practical: Equips churches for effective evangelism, expositional preaching, prayer, and partnering together in the Great Commission
*Helps Churches Build a Biblically Informed Missionary Strategy: Ideal for missions-minded pastors, staff, students, and lay believers
