Discovering the Mission of God
Evangelism & Missions
“Mike Barnett has pulled together a stellar group of Baptist and other Christian contributors to explore the mission of God as it has unfolded in the Scriptures, in history and throughout the world today. These compelling essays will offer solid guidance to a new generation of Great Commission Christians from many Protestant denominations.”
Theology
“The single, most important feature of global Christianity is the conversation that Christians from a thousand different cultures have with each other. This compelling book brings one of the world's most dynamic Christian movements into the living rooms of Christians around the world. Pastor Wang Yi's theological reflections are essential reading for global Christians who want to understand the future of their faith.”
Evangelism & Missions
“This rare and excellent compilation of voices from the BMB community is crucial both for their flourishing and that of the broader Christian family. The contributors grapple with the overidentification of Christianity with Western culture (a problem for all Christians) while exploring various aspects of conflict and conflict resolution. Insightful discernment to be contemplated by believers of all backgrounds!”
Introduction to World Christian History
History & Biography
“It is widely known that today the majority of Christians live in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Less appreciated is Christianity's thriving presence in these locations for many centuries. In this book Cooper reintroduces us to the global story of Christianity—relocating the center of the Christian narrative to the Global South, joining an emerging chorus of scholars who are challenging the status quo of Christianity as a Western religion.”
Women
“This book is vital for churches to celebrate the essential role of Asian and Asian American women as leaders in a truly global Christianity, in which a tapestry of voices brings dignity to all.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Witty, wistful, and wickedly provocative, Brent Laytham's theological investigation into the cultural phenomena of entertainment, technology, and media is a surefire conversation starter. Whether for the college classroom, the seminary seminar, or the Christian education class in the church basement, this book is certain to engage the imagination and faith of its readers.”
Evangelism & Missions
“In this important book, Sam George and his collaborators offer comprehensive biblical, theological, and missiological evidence that migration is transforming global Christianity and its mission. Their unique focus on Indian diasporas illustrates how these communities are forming a global polycentric witness. Essential reading.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Missiologist Allen Yeh offers a compelling narrative of both continuity and discontinuity for five conferences linking themselves with the centenary of the World Missionary Conference held in Edinburgh in 1910. His reflections, as first-hand accounts coming so soon after these events, will likely prove invaluable for years to come.”
History & Biography
“This book moves on from colonial narratives of Christianity in Oceania, allowing indigenous Christians to tell their own stories to the global Christian community. Their insights offer profound understandings of community and our relationship to land, water, and the environment—perhaps what mankind needs to reverse its poor stewardship of the planet. This collection presents a strong rationale for decolonizing Christianity around the world and forefronting those who, up until now, have had little or no voice.”
The Global Church—The First Eight Centuries
History & Biography
“myth of Christianity as a Western religion. Given the global nature of Christianity today, this retelling is both life-giving and strategic.”
History & Biography
“Dr. Kim is an Asian scholar and practitioner who, while witnessing the growth of Christianity in the Global South, is asking questions about its declining strength in Europe and North America. His wide-ranging analysis offers a fresh perspective on trends in global Christianity.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Global theologian Graham Joseph Hill has made listening to Majority World Christians a cornerstone of his life, work, scholarship, and ministry. World Christianity: An Introduction presents an invaluable picture of the myriad expressions of World Christianity that are still dominated by Western voices. Hill helps inaugurate a new chapter in our global understanding that describes a diverse but united faith for all peoples with humility, diversity, and equity as essential features of an international community.”
