“From biblical theology to a history of missions, and from contextualization to one’s particular call to be a missionary, You Are Sent clearly covers all essential topics in a transferable format. More importantly, it emphasizes that God’s sending of his people is not intended for a select few. Rather, wherever God has put us, we are on mission. Highly recommended!” ~ Gregg R. Allison, Professor of Christian Theology, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary; secretary, Evangelical Theological Society; author of Historical Theology and Sojourners and Strangers “Inspirational, practical, and made to order for the biggest, most diverse social network in the world; the church. Nathan's heart for the local church comes through in this book. It is combined with an equal dose of Great Commission vision. If you have been looking for a way to energize the soul of your congregation, this is the resource for you.” ~ Ted Esler, President, Missio Nexus “Each week in my church toward the end of the service, we pray this prayer: “And now, Father, send us out to do the work you have given us to do, to love and serve you as faithful witnesses of Christ our Lord.” In this new work, Nathan Sloan provides tangible feet to this prayer—a practicable and reflective guide to help every believer engage in God’s mission. I highly recommend it.” ~ Edward L. Smither, Dean, College of Intercultural Studies, Columbia International University; author of Christian Missions and Mission in the Early Church |
