About this ebook
By tracing the origins of mission right back to God's character, and then seeing how it unfolds throughout the storyline of the Bible, we begin to understand how important it is to him.
As we see his heart for mission and the nations, we are challenged to discover God's plan for us too. Will this change our priorities as individuals and churches? Dare we see our place in God's plan and own the task of reaching the unreached?
Contents
1 The Father's love
2 The Son's name
3 The Spirit's power
4 The Bible's story
5 The church's task
6 The cultural challenge
7 The global mandate
Summary and leaders' notes
This practical, thought-provoking and accessible resource is the latest in the popular IVP/Keswick Ministries series of study guides.
