There is a growing body of literature about the missional church, but the word missional is often defined in competing ways with little attempt to ground it deeply in Scripture. Michael Goheen, a dynamic speaker and the coauthor of two popular texts on the biblical narrative, unpacks the missional identity of the church by tracing the role God's people are called to play in the biblical story. Goheen shows that the church's identity can be understood only when its role is articulated in the context of the whole biblical story--not just the New Testament, but the Old Testament as well. He also explores practical outworkings and implications, offering field-tested suggestions for contemporary churches.

A Light to the Nations is a singularly well-organized survey of ancient Israel in its historical continuity, with special attention to the literature of the Old Testament viewed through the lens of historical-critical method. The book interweaves literary, historical and theological approaches, combining the best features of other scholarly texts that are strong in only one of these points of view. Thus it is not just an exegesis of the biblical books, nor simply a history of Israel, nor purely a theological study, but a synthesis of the interests and values of all three. Throughout, connections between the faith of Israel and that of the later synagogue and church are stressed. An immensely useful section on Canon and Text gives the student a knowledge of the Old Testament's ancestry that is foundational to studying the biblical text. The book is richly supplied with maps, illustrations, a glossary, recommended further reading, and translations of eleven chief ancient Near Eastern texts related to the Bible.

Walter Kaiser questions the notion that the New Testament represents a deviation from God's supposed intention to save only the Israelites. He argues that--contrary to popular opinion--the older Testament does not reinforce an exclusive redemptive plan. Instead, it emphasizes a common human condition and God's original and continuing concern for all humanity. Kaiser shows that the Israelites' mission was always to actively spread to gentiles the Good News of the promised Messiah. This new edition adds two new chapters, freshens material throughout, expands the bibliography, and includes study questions.

""The twelve essays reprinted in this volume illustrate how biblical scholars have worked in one area of research (the church in the New Testament) and furnish a record of some of the issues that have concerned the church and its people during recent years."" --From the Introduction Daniel J. Harrington, SJ (1940-2014), was Professor of New Testament at Boston College. Father Harrington authored more than forty books including, The Synoptic Gospels Set Free: Preaching Without Anti-Judaism and Jesus in Prayer: What the New Testament Teaches Us.

This volume presents the history of the modern era in story form, giving proper emphasis to dates, central characters, and key concepts in each era. End of chapter reviews and other material highlight dates and events, characters in history, and definitions of key terms. The central consideration of this volume is how modern ideas, institutions, and culture have developed from the high centuries of Christian culture. Drawing on the guidance of Catholic thinkers and the popes (particularly Leo XIII, Pius XI, Pius XII, John Paul II, and Benedict XVI), this history presents the hope that Christian thought and work hold for the future.

Did you know that Israel, the Church, and the Lord Jesus share the same birthday? Most Christians know that the Church was born on Pentecost. Few know that Israel had the same birthday 1,500 years earlier. The Church has entirely missed the real birthday of Jesus. In addition all three - Jesus, the Church, and Israel - share a common fate at the Cross. On Passover only the Passover lamb was sacrificed. Why was Jesus crucified along with two others? What is Satan's role in the rise and fall of world empires? What is America's role in the last days? America is not mentioned in the Bible. Many speculate that the EU (European Union) will be the last world empire from which the Antichrist will arise. But this book contends that the last world empire is here already! World empires are inspired by Satan. Will America be any different? The Church's understanding of the Great Commission has been affected by Replacement theology. She has ignored Israel's vital role in the end times. A clear understanding of Israel's role in the fulfilment of biblical prophecies is crucial to developing a true and accurate assessment of our times. Israel is the key to understanding the Bible and our times. We are as in the days of Noah. Israel will soon arise and finish the mission that God has for her. Early Christianity had rich Jewish roots. Recover that connection and books such as Job, Ruth, Esther, and Jonah, take on a much deeper dimension. It is my sincere hope that this book, Israel: A Light Unto the Nations, will light up your understanding of the Bible and the times we are living in like a million-megawatt light-bulb in your soul, and spur us to reach out ever more fervently with the gospel.

This new edition of a bestselling textbook (over 185,000 copies sold) draws on key biblical texts to demonstrate that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. John Piper offers a biblical defense of God's supremacy in all things, providing readers with a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centeredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching "all nations." The third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the prosperity gospel. The book is essential reading for those involved in or preparing for missions work. It also offers enlightenment for college and seminary students, pastors, youth workers, campus ministers, and all who want to connect their labors to God's global purposes.

The essays in this volume, which are written by friends, colleagues, and former students, are dedicated to Gary B. McGee as a memorial to his life, work, and service. As a professor with a clear calling to teach, he modeled this passion at the Open Bible College (Des Moines, Iowa), Central Bible College (Springfield, Missouri), and the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (Springfield, Missouri). He exuded the understanding that quality teaching, superior scholarship, a genuine Pentecostal spirituality, and an irenic spirit can and should go together. Within the title of this volume, A Light to the Nations, two aspects become clear. First, each person is called to be "a light to the nations," as Gary McGee modeled. Second, and foundational to the first, is the reality that Jesus Christ is the ultimate light, and our energies, study, discussions, and life in general should rely on this fact. As a reflection of Gary McGee's life and ministry, these two aspects are focused through three lenses, which are the three sections of this volume: Ecumenism, Missions, and Pentecostalism. The essays represent a diversity of subjects and denote various explorations by colleagues and friends of Gary B. McGee.
