This exhaustive theology of missions focuses on theory and biblical mandates for missions as a vital part of theology. George Peters, a foremost missions authority, considers both liberal and conservative views, although his own stance is solidly evangelical.
"A welcome addition to the bookshelves of missionary literature. Dr. Peters has done a remarkable job in dealing with the fundamental issues of missions today. It is truly a study book and should be studied thoroughly by all who have any interest in the field of missions."
- Calvary Review
"This book is scholarly, spiritual and easy reading because of the warm missionary compassion that flows through its chapters."
- Presbyterian Journal
"Throughout the book, certain emphases come through loud and clear: the theocentricity of the Christian mission, the importance of proclamation, the centrality of the local church and the lordship of Christ. A solid and significant contribution to the literature on missiology."
