I’m finishing up The Mission of God by Christopher J. Wright. Scot McKnight has recommended this book like crazy and I understand why. It provides a rock solid argument for the missional nature of Scripture and helps us see that God as the very first missionary.
Get this book and read it. If you preach, it’ll give you tons of sermon ideas. If you teach a Bible class, you’ll want to use it in your class. It is easily turning out to be one of the most helpful books I’ve read in a long time.
I have not read this book yet, but the other minister on staff is reading it. I will in time, but right now I am reading about church fights. Fun stuff. It is for a class.
