| jesus christ his mission and ministry: What Is the Mission of the Church? Kevin DeYoung, Greg Gilbert, 2011-09-08 Social justice and mission are hot topics today: there's a wonderful resurgence of motivated Christians passionate about spreading the gospel and caring for the needs of others. But in our zeal to get sharing and serving, many are unclear on gospel and mission. Yes, we are called to spend ourselves for the sake of others, but what is the church's unique priority as it engages the world? DeYoung and Gilbert write to help Christians articulate and live out their views on the mission of the church in ways that are theologically faithful, exegetically careful, and personally sustainable. Looking at the Bible's teaching on evangelism, social justice, and shalom, they explore the what, why, and how of the church's mission. From defining mission, to examining key passages on social justice and their application, to setting our efforts in the context of God's rule, DeYoung and Gilbert bring a wise, studied perspective to the missional conversation. Readers in all spheres of ministry will grow in their understanding of the mission of the church and gain a renewed sense of urgency for Jesus' call to preach the Word and make disciples. |
| jesus christ his mission and ministry: Ministry in the Image of God Stephen Seamands, 2009-09-20 Merit winner in the 2006 Christianity Today Book Awards! As the Father has sent me, so I send you. Those of us called to Christian ministry are commissioned and sent by Jesus, just as he himself was called and sent by the Father. Thus we naturally pattern our ministries after Christ's example. But distinctively Christian service involves the Spirit as well, just as Jesus himself accomplished his ministry in the power of the Spirit. Thus the whole Trinity--Father, Son and Holy Spirit--gives shape to truly authentic Christian ministry. Though as Christians we all affirm the doctrine of the Trinity, many of us might struggle to explain how understanding the Trinity could actually shape our ministry. Stephen Seamands demonstrates how a fully orbed theology of the Trinity transforms our perception and practice of vocational ministry. Theological concepts like relationality and perichoresis have direct relevance to pastoral life and work, especially in unfolding a trinitarian approach to relationships, service and mission. A thoroughly trinitarian outlook provides the fuel for our ministry of Jesus Christ, to the Father, through the Holy Spirit, on behalf of the church and the world. Essential reading for pastors, parachurch workers, counselors, missionaries, youth ministers and all who are called to any vocation of Christian ministry. |

This book tells three of their stories from history and invites us to believe God, step out, and serve the purposes of God in our generation too.

| jesus christ his mission and ministry: Mission in the New Testament William J. Larkin, Joel F. Williams, 1998 This book presents a comprehensive articulation of New Testament teachings on mission from a contemporary American evangelical standpoint. Mission in the New Testament contributes a fresh statement of the biblical foundations of mission, serving as a catalyst for completion of the church's universal mission in this generation.After investigating the historical background of the idea of mission in the Hebrew Scriptures, inter-testamental Judaism, the life of Jesus and the beginnings of the church, the book proceeds in a roughly canonical order through the New Testament. Essays analyze the works of Paul, the Synoptic gospels, Acts of the Apostles, the General Epistles, and the Book of Revelation. Well-versed in the historical-critical method of biblical interpretation, editors and contributors alike offer a cogent argument for recovering the missional horizon of the New Testament. |
| jesus christ his mission and ministry: The Mission of God Christopher J.H. Wright, 2013-01-30 Most Christians would agree that the Bible provides a basis for mission. But Christopher Wright boldly maintains that mission is bigger than that--there is in fact a missional basis for the Bible! The entire Bible is generated by and is all about God's mission. He provides a missional hermeneutic in response to this claim. |

| jesus christ his mission and ministry: Above All J.D. Greear, 2019-06-01 Is gospel Christianity dead? Pundits are writing the obituary of historic, orthodox Christianity, but pastor and author J. D. Greear (Gospel, Stop Asking Jesus into Your Heart) believes the postmortems are premature. Jesus promised to build his church. He said that the gates of hell would not prevail against it. The church is not going away. Along with this promise, Jesus gave clear instructions for how the church would prevail. He promised to build it on the rock of the gospel. The most pressing need for Christianity today is not a new strategy. It is not an updated message. It is a return to keeping the gospel above all. |

| jesus christ his mission and ministry: Let the Nations be Glad John Piper, 2020-05-21 'Mission is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exist because worship doesn't.

Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions.

This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'. |

| jesus christ his mission and ministry: Letter to His Son Mara Bar Sarapion, 2014-12 This first monograph-length treatment of the Syriac Letter of the Stoic Mara bar Sarapion of Samosata to his son contains a critically edited text, English and German translations, and notes on language, syntax, cultural background, and parallels from ancient literature, along with an introduction and essays on central questions of interpretation. These include the letter's linguistic position within Aramaic literature and the form-critical location of the text within the genre of Hellenistic epistolography. The most probable historical context is identified as the Roman-Commagenean war (72 CE). The mention of the wise king of the Jews in a series of paradigmatic philosophical figures occasions a discussion of the relationship of this cultured citizen of Commagene to Judaism and early Christianity. Mara's lucid argumentation is located within the philosophical discourse of the imperial era. |
| jesus christ his mission and ministry: Love Does Bob Goff, 2012 Now a New York Times Bestseller As a college student he spent 16 days in the Pacific Ocean with five guys and a crate of canned meat. As a father he took his kids on a world tour to eat ice cream with heads of state. He made friends in Uganda, and they liked him so much he became the Ugandan consul.
