The Missional Church in Perspective

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Van Gelder and Zscheile have succeeded in bringing clarity to the term ‘missional’ by providing the most rigorous and theologically astute treatment of the subject to date. Beginning with a thorough review of the history and development of the missional conversation, they graciously critique some of the inadequacies of how the term ‘missional’ has been defined, described, and applied, and they further articulate a clear theological basis for understanding the missional church.”
