Mission Of God Second Edition
$64.99Tackle Key Questions from the Past Two Decades in this Fully Updated Edition
Engage with the latest scholarship on the biblical theology of mission and missional hermeneutics with Christopher J. H. Wright’s classic text-now fully revised and updated!
Most Christians would agree that the Bible provides a basis for mission. But Christopher Wright boldly maintains that there is a missional basis for the Bible itself. The entire Bible is generated by and is all about God’s mission. In order to understand the Scriptures, we need a missional hermeneutic, an interpretive perspective in sync with the beating heart of its great mission.
Wright gives us a new hermeneutical perspective on Scripture through an understanding of:
*Who God is
*What he has called his people to be and do
*How the nations fit into God’s missionIn this revised edition of The Mission of God, Wright extends his classic discussion to consider the ways that the conversation on missional hermeneutics has developed since its original publication. With fully updated citations and additional chapters focused on gospel-centered holistic mission and on the issue of election and supersessionism, this new edition addresses the questions, criticisms, and insights that have emerged during the intervening two decades.
God’s mission is to reclaim the world, and God’s people have a designated role to play. Whether you’re a pastor, scholar, or student, The Mission of God will benefit your understanding of how the Bible shapes the story and purpose of God’s peo

Bluegrass Gospel : The Music Ministry Of Jerry And Tammy Sullivan – The Mus
$165.00A University Press Of Mississippi Title
Heavily influenced by Bill Monroe, the “Father of Bluegrass” in the 1940s and ’50s, gospel music in the South began to shift into bluegrass gospel, a style that combines both genres. In Bluegrass Gospel: The Music Ministry of Jerry and Tammy Sullivan, anthropologist and journalist Jack Edward Bernhardt explores the lives, music, and ministry of acclaimed father-daughter bluegrass gospel performers and recording artists Jerry (1933-2014) and Tammy Sullivan (1964-2017) of southwest Alabama.
Beginning in 1993, Bernhardt lived and traveled with the Sullivans as they took their music and testimony along bumpy back roads to backwoods sanctuaries from the Florida Panhandle to Mississippi, Louisiana’s bayous, Texas, Arkansas, and beyond. The author’s compelling narrative combines long-term fieldwork with extensive oral histories, archival research, photography, and tape recordings of the Sullivans’ music and testimonies in secular and sacred contexts. Bernhardt describes in vivid detail the challenges of life on the road through unforeseen circumstances and the financial uncertainty of performing for pass-the-collection-basket “love offerings,” while remaining committed to doing the work they felt called to do. In an afterword by Marty Stuart, Jerry’s friend and cowriter of the 1995 Grammy-nominated “At the Feet of God,” Stuart recounts his experiences playing mandolin with the Sullivan Family on the “Brush Arbor Trail” as a talented, wide-eyed twelve-year-old.
In the penultimate chapter, Bernhardt accompanies Tammy’s widower, Jonathan Causey, and their son, Jon Gideon, to churches along the same gospel trail blazed by Jerry and Tammy. With their own music ministry, the Causeys continue the legacy of song and testimony the Sullivans pursued for thirty-five years.
Ultimately, Bernhardt reflects on how his relationship with the Sullivans led to friendship and mutual respect for cultural differences that endure through time. The result is an intimate portrayal of life, faith, and family-based music ministry in the South today as in the past.

Fujian : The Blessed Province
$24.99A Langham Global Library Title
Many people are aware of the extraordinary explosion of Christianity throughout China in recent decades, but few know how it has occurred. In The China Chronicles, Paul Hattaway draws on 35 years of experience in China and numerous first-hand interviews with church leaders to provide insight into how the Living God has brought about the largest revival in the history of Christianity.
Presented in a style that is exciting, relevant and transformative, Hattaway documents the acts of the Holy Spirit throughout China, preferring to focus on the wonderful things God has done for men rather than on what men have done for God. Fujian, a province in southeast China with more than 40 million people, was considered an obscure region in the past, but the gospel has blazed such a pathway that by the 1920s Fujian contained more Christians than any other province of China. The home of key Chinese church leaders, including John Sung, Watchman Nee, and Leland Wang, the church in Fujian has impacted millions of people in Southeast Asia and throughout the world.
