paperbackLiturgical Mission
The Work of the People for the Life of the World
by Winfield Bevins
Foreword by Justo L. GonzálezModern missional movements have often viewed the historic Christian traditions with suspicion. The old traditions may be beautiful, the thinking goes, but they’re too insular, focused primarily on worship and on the interior life of the church, and not looking outward to evangelism and good works.

Who is Jesus Christ? While Jesus and his teaching continue to hold appeal, many people question the plausibility or relevance of the Christian faith. Is it reasonable to believe that Jesus was truly divine? If so, what does it mean for us?

The Ascended Christ and the Ministry of the Church
New Explorations in Theology
by Joseph H. Sherrard
Foreword by Alan TorranceChrist has ascended. Yet his work continues.
Much has been made of a "missional" view of the church in recent theological literature, but largely overlooked in this discussion has been the contribution that T. F.
