the Greek New Testament. Designed to accompany a beginning or

What does Paul's missions strategy mean for today? A century ago
Roland Allen published Missionary Methods: Saint Paul's or Ours?, a
missiological classic which tackled many important issues,
including what biblically rooted missions looks like in light of
the apostle Paul's evangelistic efforts. Although Allen's work is
still valuable, new understandings have been gained regarding
Paul's milieu and missionary activity, and how his practices ought
to inform missions in our ever-changing world. Using the centennial
anniversary of Allen's work as a springboard for celebration and
reflection, the contributors to Paul's Missionary Methods have
revisited Paul's first-century missionary methods and their
applicability today. This book examines Paul's missionary efforts
in two parts. First Paul is examined in his first-century context:
what was his environment, missions strategy and teaching on
particular issues? The second part addresses the implications of
Paul's example for missions today: is Paul's model still relevant,
and if so, what would it look like in modern contexts? Experts in
New Testament studies and missiology contribute fresh, key insights
from their fields, analyzing Paul's missionary methods in his time
and pointing the way forward in ours. Contributors include Michael
F. Bird, Eckhard J. Schnabel, Benjamin L. Merkle, Christoph W.
Stenschke, Don N. Howell Jr., Craig Keener, David J. Hesselgrave,
Michael Pocock, Ed Stetzer, M. David Sills, Chuck Lawless, J. D.

Veteran scholar-missionaries Robert L. Plummer and John Mark Terry
edit this collection of entry points into the missionary methods of
the Apostle Paul. With contributions from Michael Bird, Eckhard
Schnabel and Craig Keener, this volume examines Paul's missionary
methods from the perspective of Paul's activities in the first
century and the perspective of his ongoing impact on missions
today. The first part of the book examines Paul's environment,
activity and teaching. The second portion investigates the
application of Paul's methods and principles to modern missionary
work. The occasion for this book is the centennial of Roland
Allen's Missionary Methods: Saint Paul's or Ours? a classic in the
field which Paul's Missionary Methods enthusiastically engages
with.

Research indicates that on average, Americans change their
religious affiliation at least once during their lives. Today, a
number of evangelical Christians are converting to Catholicism,
Eastern Orthodoxy and Anglicanism. Longtime Evangelicals often fail
to understand the attraction of these non-Evangelical Christian
traditions. Journeys of Faith examines the movement between these
traditions from various angles. Four prominent converts to Eastern
Orthodoxy, Catholicism, Evangelicalism and Anglicanism describe
their new faith traditions and their spiritual journeys into them.
Response chapters offer respectful critiques. Contributors include
Wilbur Ellsworth (Eastern Orthodoxy), with a response by Craig
Blaising; Francis J. Beckwith (Roman Catholicism), with Gregg
Allison responding; Chris Castaldo (Evangelicalism) and Brad
Gregory s Catholic response; and Lyle Dorsett (Anglicanism), with a
response by Robert Peterson. This book will provide readers with
first-hand accounts of thoughtful Christians changing religious
affiliation or remaining true to the traditions they have always
known. Pastors, counselors and students of theology will gain a
wealth of insight into current faith migration within the church
today."
