| Résumé : |
“I am so grateful for the work that Dr. Davis has done on the topic of being on mission with God, but more importantly for the deep work he has done on this sometimes “mystical” and certainly “misunderstood” area of calling. As a life-long student on the topic I have been exposed to some great thinkers over the years who have helped form my own foundational thoughts that l’ve been able to teach. But Chuck has provided us with so much more; the deeper theological underpinnings that not only reinforce our suspicions, but more importantly lead us into deep biblical confidence.” - Rev Scott Olson,
“Many efforts to describe God’s mission entrusted to his people feel “same old, same old” to me. But Dr. Charles Davis in Jonah and Me: On Mission with God provides fresh perspective, framing this biblical mission in an engaging, Creative way without compromising the biblical text. Even the language used challenged me to think in healthy, new, yet very biblical ways. Unless this mission is compellingly conveyed to the emerging generation, and warmly embraced by them, the Church of Jésus Christ is increasingly at risk of losing its God- given focus and mission in an increasingly troubled, turbulent world. Dr. Davis gives us a great tool for not only helping this generation understand God’s mission, but engage in it.” - Dr Robert Fetherlin |
