God's Design for World Missions

Why another book on missions? There are already so many - and great ones, too. For years, the author has researched, studied, and contemplated the purpose and design of missions as found in Scripture and how it is being practiced today. Though he had witnessed both American-style missions, and missions as practiced by nationals, he does not have an ax to grind with anyone. Each Bible-believing missionary stands before God and must answer to Him for how and why he does missionary work. Rather, this is a book of ideas geared to encourage and motivate those who are interested in reaching the peoples of this world for Christ.

Interesting topics include the following:

-Methods of evangelism around the world

-Checklist for potential missionaries

-Danger of multiculturalism in missions

-Discernment of music on the mission field

-Understanding cultural differences

-How to pray for your missionaries

-How to preach with an interpreter

-Discerning Guilt, Shame, and Power worldviews

-Around the world in 80 ways

-Avoiding common mistakes in missions

-Communcation on deputation

One of the most unusual features of this book is the Appendix, which highlights over 250 Bible verses from the Old and New Testaments demonstrating how God has reached out to man in every time period of history, in every country, and every culture.
