What Is the Mission of the Church?
Making Sense of Social Justice, Shalom and the Great Commission
By Kevin DeYoung and Greg Gilbert (Crossway, 2011)
“It is not the church’s responsibility to right every wrong or to meet every need, though we have biblical motivation to do some of both. It is our responsibility, however—our unique mission and plain priority—that this unpopular, impractical gospel message gets told, that neighbors and nations may know that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing, they may have life in his name.” —Kevin DeYoung and Greg Gilbert, from the book
