Graig Van Gelder and Dwight Zscheile review and critique the long, complex, and contested history of Christian mission in America from the beginning of the colonial era to the present day. They discuss current realities confronting the church, discern possibilities of where and how the Spirit of God might be at work today, and imagine what participating in the triune God's mission may look like in an uncertain tomorrow."--$cback cover. 410 0$aThe Gospel and our culture 606 $aMissions 606 $aMission of the church 606 $aMissions$zUnited States 615 0$aMissions. 615 0$aMission of the church. 615 0$aMissions 676 $a266 700 $aVan Gelder$b Craig$01665427 702 $aZscheile$b Dwight J. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817420403321 996 $aParticipating in God's mission$94024034 997 $aUNINA
