Voices from the Field presents a unique opportunity to encounter real people and hear authentic Christian perspectives from around the world. The world has never seemed closer. We feel we can watch history unfold before our very eyes on our constantly connected devices. We have access to more information than ever before, but this flood of data has not produced genuine connection nor understanding. Genuine conversations require safe places for us and to share and humility to listen. The contributors to this volume have felt safe to share and your are invited to listen to voices from around the world. Voices that confront our practices and prejudices while inviting our partnership. To engage in missions today is to embrace the task of life-long learning. This book is a rich resource for those who would join in the global task of building God’s Kingdom, presenting not just more information but new lenses through which to see ourselves and our shared world.
