About this book
John Stott was a renowned expositor and servant of the global church. His life's ministry to develop and resource Christian leaders around the world has left an important legacy, especially for the church in Latin America. Many of these Christian leaders would receive direct support from Stott's ministry, now known as Langham Partnership, to obtain their PhDs, joining numerous others around the world as a community of Langham scholars.On the 100th anniversary of John Stott's birth, Langham scholars honor this legacy and Stott's holistic understanding of the gospel, as they bear witness to the good news of the kingdom of God and its justice in Latin America. Structured around the historical development and impact of the Reformation throughout the continent, this collection of essays reflects on how the gospel has been understood, and addresses fundamental questions that stem from the rich biblical, historical, and theological traditions of the diverse faith communities in Latin America. Providing a proactive model for the global church that encourages dialogue, these contextualized expositions reflect their authors' deep commitment to the Latin American church and the implications of the gospel.
