‘If you are thinking and praying about going to the mission field, wait! Do not go until you have read this book! Having been born overseas as a third-generation missionary still living on the field and now working to equip pastors and leaders from all around the world, I can tell you that we do not want a “contextualized” gospel approach to missions. We want a Word-centered, gospel-driven reformation that shamelessly upholds the ancient gospel. This small treasure will help you think through this topic very carefully and better prepare you for what God has entrusted to you.’ Rick Denham, 9Marks International Director, Desiring God Global Spreading Manager, and International Director for Editora FIEL.
