{"product_id":"9781575679358","title":"Reaching and Teaching: A Call to Great Commission Obedience","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost Christians know and understand that we are to seek to reach the  lost around the world. Yet, Christ's command to us is more specific and calls us  to a higher standard of involvement with the peoples of the world. He has called  the church to make disciples of all people groups and to teach them to observe all  He commanded us (Matthew 28:18-20). In recent years mission agencies and missionaries  have increasingly shifted away from discipleship and teaching toward an emphasis  upon evangelism and church planting—many to the exclusion of any other field  activity. While evangelism and church planting are essential components of a biblical  missions program, they are not sufficient for the complete task to which we have  been called.\u003ci\u003e Reaching and Teaching\u003c\/i\u003e examines the task Christ gave in the Great  Commission and redefines the task of missions from that which is currently prevalent.  It surveys missions strategies and methodologies that have increasingly replaced  Christ’s Great Commission instructions even as they have sought to fulfill  it. It is a clarion call to return to the biblical task of reaching \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e  teaching the nations for Christ’s sake. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Moody Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47147086840048,"sku":"9781575679358","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781575679358_p0.jpg?v=1763778335","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781575679358","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
