"The entire book has been updated. . . . The actual content makes this book one of the best introductory texts for teaching Evangelical missions. . . . The book's goal is to capture the heart, as well as the mind, of the student. There is no reason to think that this cannot happen with Introducing World Missions. This book will be a helpful addition to academic missionary literature and a useful tool for teaching a new generation of students."
--D. Scott Hildreth, Southeastern Theological Review
Praise for the First Edition
"No introduction to the global phenomenon of missions has been as up-to-date, or, in many a day, as thorough and well organized as this superb volume by three outstanding mission scholars."
--†Ralph D. Winter, William Carey International University
"An up-to-date textbook introducing the subject of Christian world missions from an evangelical perspective. . . . [The text is] not only readable but attractive in layout, broad in content, balanced in perspective, and in a teacher and student-friendly format. . . . The authors succeed in striking a balance between the extremes of oversimplification in brevity and overload with detail, thus providing the ideal textbook for an introductory course on Christian world missions. . . . There is simply no other textbook that compares with it."
--Craig Ott, Trinity Journal
"This foundational volume is comprehensive, contemporary, and challenging. Well-chosen case studies, helpful diagrams, and attention-grabbing sidebars supplement the well-written text. An outstanding text for an introductory missions course as well as an invaluable resource for prospective missionaries and local church leaders. I recommend it highly."
--†Kenneth B. Mulholland, Columbia Biblical Seminary and School of Missions
"A remarkable textbook. . . . [This is an] educational and practical resource for missions pastors and would-be missionaries."
