The Continuing Conversion of the ChurchWestern society is now a very different, very difficult mission field. In such a situation, the mission of evangelism cannot succeed with an attitude of "business as usual." This volume builds a theology of evangelism that has its focus on the church itself.

Western society is now a very different, very difficult mission field. In such a situation, the mission of evangelism cannot succeed with an attitude of "business as usual." This volume builds a theology of evangelism that has its focus on the church itself. Darrell Guder shows that the church's missionary calling requires that the theology and practice of evangelism be fundamentally rethought and redirected, focused on the continuing evangelization of the church so that it can carry out its witness faithfully in today's world. 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.Binding Type: Paperback

Engaging and Educational! Perfect for Little Astronomers! 🌟
Format: Board book
"8 Little Planets" is an absolute delight for young readers and their parents alike! As a parent of a toddler who is just starting to explore the wonders of space, I found this book to be a fantastic introduction to the solar system. The colorful illustrations are vibrant and captivating, immediately drawing in little ones' attention. The rhyming text is fun and easy to read aloud, making it a joy to share this book during storytime.
What I love most about "8 Little Planets" is how it manages to make learning about the planets so engaging. Each planet is given its moment to shine with a little story that is both informative and age-appropriate. The book also subtly incorporates the latest astronomical knowledge, like the reclassification of Pluto, which is a great touch.
It's clear that this book was created with care and attention to detail, and it's become a favorite in our home. Whether you're raising a future astronaut or just looking for a fun way to introduce your child to science, "8 Little Planets" is a stellar choice!

Solar system board book:EXCELLENT, INFORMATIONAL AND FUN
Format: Board book
My niece loved this book. As did I! I always found outer space fascinating, but have forgotten many facts from my youth. When I ordered it, read it through and was very happy about all the information packed I. Such a fun book. There is even an honorary mention of Pluto. Vibrant, fun, factual, EXCELLENT! she got a astronaut costume also, so now she’s got all the tools for her imaginary space travel.

Amazon should know how to deliver books without damaging.
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
This is a fantastic book and the back has fun facts, plus a dedication the minor planet Pluto that was not included. If you are Gen-x you know that acknowledging Pluto on the back just warms yor heart.
Most of the science info is on the back cover. The board book focuses on naming the planets and the artistry. I think this is great and the extra facts on the back are better for older kids who might want to pretend they are too big for baby books.
This is a really beautiful book, but there was damage. The lip is all suffered up and marred (2nd picture) and where you open the book (1st picture) there is already a wear crease. I blame the defects on Amazon, but a cellophane wrap might have helped prevent the damage
