Verster (missiology, U. of the Free State, South Africa) draws together works he has written over the past two decades into a broad study of mission from a Biblical perspective. He considers specific aspects of mission and their implication for the church at the turn of the 21st century, among which are atonement and reconciliation, a Pauline perspective on mission and the glory and lordship of Christ, the church and the need of sub-Saharan Africa, and Muslim evangelism.
