    From Luke-Acts to Systematic and Pastoral Theology

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Michael J. Ovey
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    by William A. Simmons

    Missiological Engagements

    by John G. Flett and Henning Wrogemann

    The gospel is for every tribe, tongue, and nation (Revelation 7:9), but there is no single biblical or theological model for the relationship between the gospel and these diverse cultures.
