The Mission of God's People

The Mission of God's People: A Biblical Theology of the Church's Mission (Biblical Theology for Life)This is a book that I am greatly looking forward to:  The Mission of God's People: A Biblical Theology of the Church's Mission.  From the Zondervan blog:
Coming in September of 2010 we'll be releasing Christopher J.H. Wright's new book, The Mission of God's People: A Biblical Theology of the Church's Mission (Biblical Theology for Life). In it Wright offers a sweeping biblical survey of the holistic mission of the church - while providing practical insight for today’s church leaders. Wright gives special emphasis to theological trajectories of the Old Testament that not only illuminate God’s mission but also suggest priorities for Christians engaged in God’s world-changing work. Reader's of Wright's The Mission of God: Unlocking the Bible's Grand Narrative will find this book a welcome follow-up.
Chris Wright gave a talk at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary's Spring Lectureship that centered on the message of The Mission of God's People.  You can listen to it here for free.
