Have you ever felt like there's a higher calling for your life? Something more than the mundane weekly routine of work, eat, sleep, play, and church? In Godspeed, Britt Merrick challenges us to step out of our little, self-centered lives and step into God's grand mission--His plan to restore, redeem, and renew the world. Your heart has been aching for something more, and this is it. Join His mission and change the world. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

The author draws from personal experiences, applications from Biblical narratives, and other illustrations to demonstrate a "missional at home" perspective. Much of what the author says is consistent with modern Evangelical focuses and themes; the very concept of missional living is quite the fad. He speaks about how the mission is about the purpose of God; that we are called despite our inadequacies; how we are to proclaim without getting lost in judgment; the willingness to glorify Jesus in all of life, even the mundane; the need for vulnerability in Gospel living and proclamation; the marriage of seeking justice and righteousness socially and spiritually; generosity and liberality; trusting in the power of God; using discernment; and a great conclusion on the importance of prayer.
The author is Evangelical and some of the peculiarities of Evangelical Christianity are present. Even if the author's exhortation is consistent with a lot of the messages being put forth, especially from the "younger" Evangelical set, it still has a lot of value in terms of attempting to see how faithful living and proclamation of the Gospel in our lives might look in our own day, age, and especially place.
