What We Need To Learn About Mission Among the Poor

Posted on January 12, 2012

In recent years there has been a growing interest among Christians in serving the poor. Unfortunately our enthusiasm is not always matched by wisdom. Wipf and Stock have published a paper I wrote on what the development sector has to teach us about being enthusiastic and effective. It’s part of a collection of papers on Baptist futures.

    This is an excellent paper Scott, and I look forward to using it with my integral mission students. I encourage you to send it to Micah Network as a means of alerting folk to the Beyond 400 resource.

      Hi Steve,
      Glad you have found it useful. If it can in a small way repay the very many borrowings I have taken from you over the years I will be well pleased.
