The author, the globally well-regarded author and speaker, and accomplished Bible-scholar, Christopher Wright, aims in this new book to place Christian mission in a whole-Bible context.
He succeeds admirably and enthusiastically, especially in the early chapters. His thoroughly convincing perspective is that mission is God’s ‘Great Story’, the mission perspective of the entire Scriptures, and thus His Great Commission to His people.
