Invitation to World Missions: A Trinitarian Missiology for the Twenty-First Century (Biblia.com)

Invitation to World Missions: A Trinitarian Missiology for the Twenty-First Century is unavailable, but you can change that!

In this practical and challenging work, Timothy Tennent lays a theological foundation for missions by underscoring the importance of the mission of God, the new creation, and a sweeping vision for the global church. He demonstrates how missions is not only central to the Christian faith—it is an essential component of an abundant and impassioned life.

to people sharing their faith around the world, extending the church, and fulfilling the Great Commission is a relatively recent application of that word. It was in the sixteenth century that the Jesuits first began to use the term mission in reference to spreading the gospel to people who were not Christians. Until that time mission was “used exclusively with reference to the doctrine of the Trinity, that is, of the sending of the Son by the Father and of the Holy Spirit by the Father and the Son.”3
