Missions is the work of the church to reach and teach the peoples of the world for Christs sake. The missionary call is a vital part of the life of every follower of Jesus Christ and, therefore, the church. But the effective discipleship of all nations requires a solid biblical, historical, and practical foundation. Therefore, the study of missiology demands the effective application of biblical studies, theology, and history.This text brings the rich heritage of evangelical missiology founded on conservative theology to a twentyfirst century audience passionate for the proclamation of the gospel. Introduction to Global Missions brings the authors decades of combined missionary and teaching experience to a survey text appropriate for college or seminary classroom.The book is divided into four sections and thirteen chapters. The text begins with the biblical and theological foundations of Christian missions, including a biblical theology of missions. Before moving to the practical and strategic issues of twentyfirst century missions, the authors consider the historical development of missions with a view toward providing a basis for contemporary strategies. A final foundational set of chapters addresses the impact of cultures on the communication of the gospel. The remainder of the text deals with key issues and opportunities in missions, including church planting, missions in the local church, and strategies for disciplemaking.Introduction to Global Missions provides a foundation for readers to consider their own missionary call, whether as a fulltime field missionary or a church member on shortterm projects. No matter their role, Great Commission Christians need a framework for doing missions well.
