Synopsis
How do we make the gospel clear and the church relevant to the post-modern, post-Christian culture in North America? Confident Witness -- Changing World seeks to answer this question in practical terms immediately useful to educators and pastors. Written by twenty-one scholars who are also skilled in doing frontline ministry, this volume discusses the radical cultural shift that has reshaped North America, one of today's most important mission fields, and explores fresh methods for presenting the gospel with confidence amid the challenges presented by our contemporary context.
