Outstanding Survey of Holistic Christian Mission

Professor Kirk's "What is Mission?" is likely the best short overview of the purpose and methods of Twenty-first Century missiology. He presents an holistic and biblical basis for our participation in the missio Dei, with the clear clarion call for the universal Church to "be witnesses" in all the world, with the whole Gospel. This is the book for anyone seeking a firm grounding in contemporary missiology.
