"From the Preface by the author: Over these last years, the integral mission movement has flourished admirably, in Latin America and around the world--especially in the Majority World. Testimonies of its proliferation are the Micah Network and Red del Camino para la Misi©đn Integral en Am©♭rica Latina (The Way Network for Integral Mission in Latin America), two organisations I have had the honour of directing. Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done to get the majority of local churches around the world to commit to transforming the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. However, we can only praise God for the progress we have seen in the practice of integral mission. We will be satisfied if this publication contributes to extending and deepening that practice even more"--page 4 of cover.

"This book in Spanish was originally part of the Red del Camino series, offering Christians workbooks to help them understand faith and the integral character of mission. The subjects in the series were directly linked to the challenges the Christian churches of Latin America and the Caribbean face on a daily basis"--from A Word from the General Editors of the Spanish Edition.
