One cannot be a faithful Christian without being in mission! The question is, however, what is true mission? And more specifically what mission does God want you to do in your context? This book is a rich resource that will aid you to work out the answers to these critical questions. In its pages you will find challenging insights from our past, helping you to understand the unique and special mission focus that God has given to Southern African Methodists. You'll be able to get some insights into what the Church is currently doing in mission, and perhaps even find some places in which you can involve yourself or your congregation. But most importantly, this book will help you to think about how you can take the healing and transforming love of Jesus Christ into an unknown future. The contributors to this book include past and present Bishops, University lecturers, Pastors and Ministers of Churches, all of whom are dedicated to Christ and committed to helping you fulfill your call to mission. This book is a collaboration between the Education for Ministry and Mission Unit of the Methodist Church of Southern Africa, and Africa Upper Room Ministries. The profits from the book go towards the ministerial students fund of the Methodist Church and help in the training of ministers.

A great deal of my life is devoted to praying, thinking, reading, and writing. Some of what I write, say, and do, may be of use to you. There are many others who think deeper thoughts, write better books, say and do more profound things than I am capable of. But, perhaps something on this page will be of use to you.
