If you had a ladder made of splinters, would you stand on it? Unfortunately, the mission practices of most churches stand on weak foundations. Life on Mission gives gospel-centered, biblical, practical foundations for how missions was meant to be: an everyone-together effort. Life on Mission is a thorough yet simple guide for everyday missionaries—electricians, lawyers, church planters, students, etc.—that equips them with truths and practices for living out the gospel within their own community. Adaptable to any context, Life on Mission functions great as both an individual and small-group study. Threaded with engaging stories and probing reflection questions, Life on Mission will help you and your community take bold steps to living life on mission.

In this study on missional living, Bethany Ferguson guides readers to see how their own experience of need empowers them to serve a needy world. Through Scripture, essays, and application for personal reflection or group discussion, The Mission-Centered Life explores confidence in God's missional purposes in the world.

In the Introduction of his groundbreaking new work, Alan Seale writes, "This book is the owner's manual you never received when you entered this world, offering both the theory and the practice that can lead you to getting the most out of your life -- physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually." What follows is an intensely detailed program of exercises, meditations, and activities that ultimately allows you to achieve what you were put on this earth to accomplish -- your soul mission. Settle in your favorite chair with Alan's book, a pen, and plenty of paper, and begin this four-fold process -- discovery, declaration of mission and vision, utilizing the mind and thought for creation, and living your mission by manifesting your vision. Discover a "big-picture view" of life beyond the constraints of any situation. Develop the power to make choices out of desire and clarity rather than circumstantial necessity. Examine your previous life choices and plan your next great steps, this time informed by what your soul deeply longs for. Alan creates the term full-spectrum living, -- embracing all that life has to offer as well as all that you have to offer life -- to define the ultimate goal of this book. His sage advice and proven program ensures that you get there. Book jacket.
