Description

Being on mission is not just one facet of following Jesus it's part of our gospel DNA.

"As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you" these were the parting instructions Jesus left his followers. God desires every Christian, regardless of location or specific calling, to live "sent" in their everyday lives. In You Are Sent, Nathan Sloan leads readers to discover how the Spirit that sends us fills us with God's heart to share the gospel with those near and far.

In this nine-week study, participants will discover God's passion for local and global missions and be empowered to make Jesus known everywhere they go. You Are Sent is adaptable and flexible for each church's need and accessible for every member, no matter where they live or what they do. This resource helps every Christian live missionally while at the same time helping them to develop a passion and knowledge for global missions.

  • Robust in theology and missiology, but accessible to every Christian.
  • Includes detailed leader's notes and an easy-to-use format suitable for a classroom, small group, or in one-on-one discipleship.
  • Published in partnership with Serge.

"From biblical theology to a history of missions, and from contextualization to one's particular call to be a missionary, You Are Sent clearly covers all essential topics in a transferable format. More importantly, it emphasizes that God's sending of his people is not intended for a select few. Rather, wherever God has put us, we are on mission. Highly recommended!"

Nathan has done a brilliant work in creating a tool that gives pastors and church leaders confidence in equipping their congregations to embrace God's heart for the nations."

"Nathan has a big heart for missions, and after reading this book, you will too. There are many books written on missions but few that would force you to slow down, ponder, ask questions, and try to apply it to your heart. It's a practical, accessible guide, packed with a lot of wisdom; one that should be read and paid heed to by all believers. Churches and missions pastors will do well to use this book."
