Description
With contributions from popular Bible teachers, including David Platt, John Piper, D. A. Carson, Andy Davis, Mack Stiles, Michael Oh, and Stephen Um, this collection of biblical expositions explores how God's love for us is meant to drive Christians out into the world on mission for him. Addressing "hot topics" that are actively discussed today-such as whether or not people without Christ are really lost and the Christian's responsibility to fight for social justice-this book sketches the biblical basis for missions based on the apostle Paul's words in 2 Corinthians, equipping Christian men and women to think carefully about their own role in taking the good news about Jesus to the world.
