Heralds and Community: An Enquiry into Paul’s Conception of Mission and Its Indebtedness to the Jesus-Tradition
This book is part of an ongoing discussion in the scholarly community about Paul’s understanding of the relationship between his own mission and the church’s mission. While this study endorses some previous scholars who exegetically argue for Paul’s thorough silence about the church’s proactive evangelism in his letters, it argues that the explanations for such a silence cannot be adequately made by exegetical conclusions on some related texts alone.

The Prayer Warrior’s Way by Cindy Trimm
There is a conversation that has been going on long before this universe was created. A conversation taking place in the spiritual realm. In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve were part of it. Throughout the history of humanity others have joined it, and there is something buried in each of our hearts that tells us we were created to be part of it as well.
We long for it. We yearn to be in on it. But despite giving our lives to Christ and being born again in the Spirit, we don’t always know how to plug into it. So we stay in earth’s chat rooms rather than praying from heaven’s throne room. Even Jesus’ disciples did not ask Him how to preach, but how to pray.
The Prayer Warrior’s Way is a practical guide for praying, enabling you to become versed in the basics necessary for talking to and hearing from God for yourself. Following the revolutionary prayer model Jesus gave to His disciples, Cindy Trimm gives you the keys to joining the most important conversation in the universe.
