As such, it offers the reader a significantly different approach to this enigmatic text than that offered by most contemporary commentaries. Working directly ...
We are not meant to live safe, happy, successful Christian lives. Jesus calls us to something more. Don't settle for a life that will soon be forgotten. Mission is not just something for "them," somewhere over "there." Mission is for us, here and now. Don Everts invites you to get caught up in God's mission in this world.
