Samuel Deressa's studies in North America have prepared him well to provide bridges back to his native Ethiopia and other lands throughout the majority world. His appropriation of insights from contemporary Western thinking . . . will provoke fruitful thinking in all parts of the world as we search for ways to bring the gospel of Jesus Christ to those outside the faith and to edify and encourage those of the faith. --Robert Kolb, Concordia Seminary, emeritus One of the best ways to understand the missional-church conversation is to perceive it through a deeply rooted and clearly situated set of lenses. This book does that beautifully . . . . Highly recommended for both undergraduate and graduate students, as well as pastoral leaders seeking to move beyond highly individualistic notions of leadership, this book will draw you into the heart of such formation with depth and clarity. --Mary E. Hess, Luther Seminary
