UntamedUntamed:
Reactivating a Missional Form of Discipleship
By Alan Hirsch and Debra Hirsch (Baker)
A 2011 Outreach Resource of the Year

“We believe that engaging our world incarnationally is not an option. If we genuinely seek to be like Jesus, then incarnational discipleship and mission should be the norm. It is the way God has chosen to reach the world in Jesus. It will require that we patiently love a person, community, even a whole culture, to the point that we spend ourselves on being little Jesuses to that community. Not only is the credibility of the people of God linked to incarnational expression, but the credibility of the Gospel is at stake in it as well.” —Alan Hirsch and Debra Hirsch, from the book
