"Scott Sunquist has produced a rarity in this book, which combines breadth of theological scope with depth of learning and life in equal measure. This wonderful compendium brings together deep biblical reflection, the wisdom of Christian ages past, and the experience of a lifetime lived in mission. This is a book to savor, ponder, and return to again and again."
-- Christopher J. H. Wright, Langham Partnership; author of The Mission of God and The Mission of God's People
"This is a clearly written, wonderfully ecumenical introduction to missiology and, indeed, mission theology. Its value lies in conceiving missiology as deeply theological and spiritual, not simply as tips and strategies for more successful evangelism. We often speak of the importance of the missio Dei for an adequate understanding of mission. In this volume Scott Sunquist helps us understand this trinitarian perspective more deeply."
-- Stephen Bevans, SVD, Catholic Theological Union, Chicago
"No mere pragmatic missiology, Scott Sunquist's book is replete with theology. This book shows us that we are steeped in suffering and in glory both across time and in today's global and urban challenges. What a high calling."
-- Miriam Adeney, Seattle Pacific University and Regent College; author of Kingdom without Borders: The Untold Story of Global Christianity
"An outstanding one-volume introduction to missiology. It is creative, unique, and captivating. I will recommend this text to all my colleagues."
-- Charles Van Engen, School of Intercultural Studies, Fuller Theological Seminary
"This book offers a fresh understanding of Christian mission endeavor from historical, theological, and ecclesiological perspectives. Scott Sunquist's teaching and living in mission contexts shine through in his expert choice of peoples and events in world Christianity. A must-read for all who reflect on Christian mission and its legacy and prospects."
-- Reverend Daniel Jeyaraj, Andrew F. Walls Centre for the Study of African and Asian Christianity, Liverpool Hope University, United Kingdom
"Three mission books in one: Sunquist provides a sweeping history, a comprehensive theology, and an impassioned call for the church to be missional. From Polycarp to Matteo Ricci and D. L. Moody, the range of this book is simply amazing."
