Summary

Respected missionary and Christian leader George Verwer sums up his life experience with mission work--as a sender, a doer, and a trainer--and talks straight about what is really needed in missions in the twenty-first century. After more than forty years as leader of Operation Mobilization, one of the top mission organizations in the world, Verwer declares the twenty-first century is no time for business as usual. No longer can or should mission agencies "compete" with each other for territories or funds. No longer should they dwell on minor theological differences. To get the job done, mission workers and organizations need a grace-awakened approach. In Out of the Comfort Zone, Verwer identifies the key elements for working together to win lost souls for Christ. Book jacket.
