For the past decade or more the buzz in many churches has been the discussion of the missional church. In fact, my library is rapidly expanding with book titles which include the word: missional. Guder’s seminal work entitled Missional Church in 1998 kick started the discussion among churches and their leaders. Since then people like Roxburgh, Van Gelder, Stetzer, McNeal, just to name a few, have added to the missional conversation by publishing multiple volumes and articles. You might wonder is there really is a need for another book on the missional church? Jack De Vries gives a review of Michael W. Goheen’s book, A Light to the Nations: The Missional Church and the Biblical Story.
