252 p. : ill. ; 21 cm. If all the earth is God's domain, why are Christians so provincial? We rarely leave our church buildings, and our spirituality rarely takes us beyond ourselves. Roger Helland and Len Hjalmarson observe that Jesus begins his mission in the temple: "Didn't you know I had to be in my father's house" But in Christ we find that the temple of the Lord--and thus the mission of the church--is at home and on the move, even to the ends of the earth. Exploring a missional spirituality -- Challenges for a missional spirituality -- Theological foundations -- Missional spirituality in action -- Your heart and soul 1 -- Your heart and soul 2 -- Your mind matters -- From all your strength -- Love your neighbor -- The Gospel according to you. Roger Helland and Leonard Hjalmarson ; foreword by Alan Hirsch. Includes bibliographical references.
