Worldwide Perspectives: Biblical, Historical, Strategic, and Cultural Dimensions of God's Plan for the Nations (Perspectives)

Rating:
Summary: Condensed research library on the subject of world missions.
Review: Worldwide Perspectives is an outstanding compilation of research and essays on the subject of world missions. This work examines God's plan for world missions. The book explains how Christians are held responsible for the Great Commission mandate, how they have been blessed for being a part of God's plan for world wide redemption, and the consequences for nations and believers who failed to accept the challenge of world missions. The true need for world evangelism and Great Commission strategies are explained. Raising up truly indigenous churches, the role of culture and the dynamic of spiritual warfare are among the topics of study. I found the work to be filled with balanced and relevant insights from some of the finest missiologists and theologian in the world. Authors include John Stott, Johannes Verkuyl, Walter Kaiser, Don Richardson, Donald McGavarn, Peter Wagner and many others. The book is actually a condensed research library on the subject of world missions. I highly recommend Worldwide Perspectives to missionaries, pastors, church leaders and all those interested in world missions today.
