Over the course of several decades, missiologist George Hunsberger has written numerous essays on crucial themes for the church s recovery of its missional identity and practice.
The Story That Chooses Us brings these essays together for the first time.
The book as a whole presents a composite sense of the missional identity and faithful witness to which the church is called in contemporary Western society. Hunsberger engages with well-known missiologist Lesslie Newbigin throughout his work as he carefully discerns biblical and theological roots for a contemporary vision of missional theology. The recurring themes in Hunsberger s essays provide both theological mooring and practical guidance for churches following Christ on the missional path."
