Newly updated and expanded by Christopher J.H. Wright, Christian Mission in the Modern World provides a biblically based approach to mission that addresses both spiritual and physical needs. With his trademark and unparalleled clarity and conviction, Stott illuminates how the Great Commission itself not only assumes the proclamation that makes disciples, but also teaches obedience to the Great Commandment of love and service. Wright has expertly updated the original book and demonstrates the continuing relevance of Stott's prescient thinking. This balanced approach to mission offers timeless guidance for current and future Christians to embrace Jesus' unconflicted model of ministry.\"--Back cover.\r\n\r\nOther Notes: \tIncludes bibliographical references.\n\nPublished in: Downers Grove, Illinois\n\nPhysical description: 238 pages ; 21 cm.","bookEdition":"Updated and expanded edition.","offers":{"@type":"Offer","availability":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OutOfStock"}}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":10,"item":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Book","name":"Christianity encountering world religions : the practice of mission in the twenty-first century \/ Terry Muck, Frances Adeney.","author":"Muck, Terry C.; Adeney, Frances S.","isbn":"9780801026607","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Baker Academic"},"datePublished":"2009","inLanguage":"English","description":"Contents: \t\r\npt. 1.

The authors term this model \"giftive mission,\" since it is based on the metaphor of a free gift. They suggest that seeing mission activity as giving the greatest gift possible-- the gospel message-- not only has the potential for greater missionary success but also enables us to imitate more closely God's gracious activity in the world - from back of the book.\n\nPublished in: Grand Rapids, Mich.\n\nPhysical description: 407 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm.","bookEdition":null,"offers":{"@type":"Offer","availability":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OutOfStock"}}}]}
