Incarnational Mission

Being with the World

About this book

A bold new way of thinking about Christian mission

“ With, ” says Samuel Wells, “is the most important word in the Christian faith.”

In this compelling follow-up to  Incarnational Ministry: Being with the Church, Wells explores what it means for mission-minded Christians and churches to  be with  the world.

Drawing on the Gospels, Acts, and personal insights gleaned from his more than two decades in ministry, Wells elaborates on the concept of  being with  in eight dimensions: presence, atten-tion, mystery, delight, participation, partnership, enjoyment, and glory. His vivid narratives and wise reflections will help Christian readers better understand how to  be with  all kinds of people outside the church, both individually and collectively.
