Redemptive Missiology in Pneumatic Context Joseph S Girdler

The pneumatic force (the power of the Holy Spirit) of Christian missions divinely assigns the otherwise solely human performance. The Holy Spirit alone leads the church to minister to the world, yet protects the church from the world. Dr. Girdler captures that which, only in the pneumatic context, is correctly understood as Christ's missional mandate to the church. The unchurched will be moved. The church will be challenged. With passion Dr. Girdler addresses the nature of the church, the true resolve of missions finances, and cultural considerations to declare the gospel with purpose, empathy, and impact. Weaving a myriad of intriguing personal examples, Redemptive Missiology in Pneumatic Context teaches clergy, missions teams, and lay-leadership how to most effectually live and share redemption with the unchurched through the power of the Holy Spirit.
