World Vision's Exploring World Mission by Bryant L. Myers is a meaningful insight into where Christian mission is heading in the next century, based upon the most up-to-date resources. 89 Colorful charts and vivid graphics are used to display the historical roots of mission, as well as the current trends in population, economics, politics, religion, children, and the church. The greatest challenges--as well as the greatest opportunities--are identified in a comprehensible format.
In this revised and updated edition of a modern classic, Bryant Myers shows how Christian mission can contribute to dismantling poverty and social evil. Integrating the best principles and practice of the international development community, the thinking and experience of Christian nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and a theological framework for transformational development, Myers demonstrates what is possible when we cease to treat the spiritual and physical domains of life as separate show more and unrelated. show less
