For U.S. Christians, life's mission trip presents many complex challenges, including an unrelenting pull toward affluence, our fervent religious-nationalism, and our deeply embedded individualism. Within today's multifaceted context, God the Real Superpower navigates the potent undertow of our inherited assumptions about missions, pointing U.S. Christians toward constructive perspectives about God, ourselves, and others. God the Real Superpower integrates prophetic Christian living, international Christian identity, and multidirectional missions in a self-probing, multifaceted way. This book is an analysis of missions that is beyond a simplistic, motivational approach. - Publisher.00aBible.pPeterxCriticism, interpretation, etc.07aBible.pPeter.2fast 0aMissionsxTheoryxBiblical teaching. 0aEvangelistic workxBiblical teaching. 7aEvangelistic workxBiblical teaching.2fast 7aMissionsxTheoryxBiblical teaching.2fast 7aCriticism, interpretation, etc.2fast413Table of contentsuhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0716/2007017264.html
