In Part 1 Guder explores how, under the influence of reductionism
and individualism, the church has historically moved away from a
biblical theology of evangelism. Part 2 presents contemporary
challenges to the church’s evangelical ministry, especially those
challenges that illustrate the church’s need for continuing conversion.
Part 3 discusses what a truly missional theology would mean for the
church, including sweeping changes in its institutional structures and
practices.

Written for teachers, church leaders, and students of evangelism,
this volume is vital reading for everyone engaged in mission work
