Missional Life in Practice and Theory

Evangelism & Missions

“I am delighted to endorse this volume honoring a longtime friend and collaborator, Gailyn Van Rheenen. The essays in this volume show that each writer has personally experienced missional growth under the tutelage of Van Rheenen and have taken and enlarged on his teaching in actual practice in Africa, Europe, and Latin America. I have been personally challenged and edified by this excellent work.”

Not Called

Work, Money & Leadership

“Kronk has worked through the issues of calling and guidance with unusual skill, biblical wisdom, and insight. And it’s thorough! It brings to bear years of service to God and Muslim people and tackles the uncertainties that beset everyone in ministry at some point. Individual believers, missions committees, agencies, NGOs, and professors need this work for their own decision-making.”

Teaching Cross-Culturally

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Using sound missiological principles and timeless biblical truths, the Lingenfelters provide a truly Christian approach to teaching successfully in intercultural contexts.”

The Impact of Short-Term Missions on Long-Term Missional Development

Evangelism & Missions

“Whether you are a veteran short-term mission leader or have just been asked to lead a team from your church or mission organization, this book is for you! Brian Bain has more than twenty years of experience traveling and leading short terms to Asia and Africa, many of these for months at a time. These experiences have led him to ask how these trips can move beyond exciting encounters with foreign people and cultures to transformative learning experiences that actually change the participant’s attitudes and actions.”
