Evangelism & Missions

“All the main churches of the UK have 'mission' high on their list of priorities at the moment—mostly in the sense of 'missional church' or 'evangelization.' So Michael W. Stroope's findings that 'mission' is a late usage—unsupported by the Bible and premodern Christian literature—will certainly provoke. Nevertheless, when so much is invested in mission, this in-depth and insightful interrogation of the discourse and rhetoric is essential reading for scholars and practitioners alike.”
