Global Voices on Global Mission Global mission has moved into a new era when it is no longer just "from the West to the rest" but rather "from everywhere to everywhere." But too often mission workers have not partnered well with local communities, hurting Christian witness and ministry efforts. And as the global church sends more and more missionaries, how can we learn from the past, develop new ways of partnering, and avoid repeating these same mistakes? The book of Acts provides a role model.Many people go into global missions to be like Paul, the pioneer taking the gospel to places where people have never heard. But in an era of mission when the church is truly global, Pauls companion Barnabas is an exceptional model of mission service.In this multifaceted volume, mission practitioners from around the world unpack the life and ministry of Barnabas. Contributors from Zambia, Bosnia, Australia, India, Ghana, New Zealand, Latin America, and the United States provide diverse experiences, global viewpoints, and best practices for effective mission partnerships that embrace humility, generosity, and mutuality.In Barnabass example we find answers for some of the most pressing questions in global mission partnership today: How should we share financial resources with generosity and trustworthiness? How do we advocate for, encourage, partner with, and empower mission partners across cultural and experiential differences? How can our mission partnerships develop as genuine communities of mutuality and visibility for all people involved? How do we wisely face sending, suffering, and division as we partner globally? Barnabas entered sensitive crosscultural situations and could help without hurting. He taught, developed, and trained others while also encouraging and releasing leaders. He modeled mission partnership that is generous, trustworthy, mutual, and empowering. In todays new era of global mission, we need more people like Barnabas. Discover how The Barnabas Factor offers a fresh approach to global collaboration that fosters healthier and more effective crosscultural mission partnerships.

Become Stewards of Gods Vision Where You Are Its possible for American Christians to live everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Were often disconnected from the places we inhabitcut off from nature, our neighbors, people different from us, and a sense of rootedness. Its time to imagine a better way.Each of us is placed by God in a specific "somewhere." Drawing on social science research and their experiences across American landscapes and the Middle East, Ben Norquist and Brian Miller show how Christians in the US can develop a redemptive imagination for place. Many people have uncritically accepted American cultural assumptions about land, property, home ownership, and the good life. Yet our identity as followers of Jesus should transform how we live in the physical world, even as we recognize how places shape their inhabitants.Every Somewhere Sacred explores tools for deeply understanding or "reading" places; interdisciplinary scholarship from Scripture, sociology, and theology on land and place; and connections between colonialism, race, social class, and American landscapes. Norquist and Miller offer a variety of personal and corporate practices including land research, reassessing priorities and habits, advocating for others, and reconsidering the nature of sacred space, prompting us toward a broader vision for how God works through space, using biblical lenses of landscape as gift, sacrament, kin, and home. Are you seeking a rooted, meaningful faith that responds to the needs of your community? If you want to dive deeper into a theology of place, Every Somewhere Sacred will help you connect to your own "somewhere" and offer guidance for becoming a steward of Gods vision where you are.
