Transforming Mission: Paradigm Shifts in Theology of Mission Book

A thoroughly researched comprehensive book on the mission of God, from the Bible to current times. Bosch defines God's mission, shows it's centrality in the Bible, the purpose of the Church, and the heart of God. He shows the transition of mission over time as 6 paradigms, and highlights the affects of context and culture on mission. He also sets the tone for our current paradigm, is generous at it at that, but he is spot on that the Church has to be ecumenical and unified to be successfully on mission today. I highly recommend this to the believer who wonders what on earth we are doing here.
