    Introducing Christian Mission Today

    Scripture, History and Issues

    by Michael W. Goheen

    Best Texts of Missiology, Hearts and Minds Bookstore

    Mission--a driving force in the long Christian story--today is often cast as the embarrassing relative of tall-steeple religiosity.

    In our wider culture it's now tucked in the endnotes of book-club histories or forms the ghostlike ellipses in the six o'clock news. But in Introducing Christian Mission ...

    Quest for the King

    The Archives of Anthropos

    by John White

    It was supposed to be a big celebration. John McFarland (uncle to Wesley, Kurt, Lisa and Mary) and his long lost Eleanor were getting married. But a typhoon kept nearly every one of their friends and family from attending the wedding ceremony in Hong Kong. And by the time everyone did arrive for the reception at a downtown hotel, John and Eleanor had disappeared without a trace! While their parents ...

    Remember Me

    A Novella about Finding Our Way to the Cross

    by Sharon Garlough Brown

    "'It is finished,' Jesus says. It's a bold declaration for us to make too. What does it mean to say 'It is finished' when so much is unfinished? It means we are people who live hope in two directions, both backward and forward. We long for the kingdom to come in fullness, even as it has already come. And we trust that the One who has begun the good work in us and for us will indeed ...

    The Message of Sonship

    by Trevor J. Burke

    "Sonship" is an important, yet often overlooked, theme throughout the Bible. Adam, the first human being, is identified as a "son of God"; Israel is God's "first-born son"; the covenant with king David is cast in father-son terms; Christians are children of God, "adopted as sons"; and the same designation brings Scripture to a triumphant conclusion: "He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I ...

    John 1-10

    Volume 4A

    Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by Joel C. Elowsky
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    The Gospel of John was beloved by the early church, much as it is today, for its spiritual insight and clear declaration of Jesus' divinity. Clement of Alexandria indeed declared it the "spiritual Gospel." Early disputers with heretics such as Cerinthus and the Ebionites drew upon the Gospel of John to refute their heretical notions and uphold the full deity of Christ, and this Gospel more than ...

    Belonging

    Accessibility, Inclusion, and Christian Community

    LifeGuide Bible Studies

    by Deborah Meyer Abbs

    God created all of us for relationship with God and each other. Yet most people have felt left out at some point. For those with visible or invisible disabilities, attitudes and systems of ableism can particularly lead to deep hurt and barriers to fully participating in God's kingdom work. We all miss out when any members of the body of Christ are not included.
