Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disability in Mission: The Church’s Hidden Treasure outlines a radical change in approaches to missiology, missions, and praxis for the twenty-first-century global cultural context. It explores a pattern whereby God works powerfully in missions through disability and not in spite of it. No matter what our disability or vulnerability may be, God can use us; and if the body of Christ is supportive, people with disability can be effective agents of transformation in the mission field. Via a number of case studies of people with disabilities who are involved in missions, and with robust biblical and missiological justification, this book examines the role of those with disability in missions.

Download or read book Millennial Missionaries written by Katherine Dugan and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millennials in the U.S. have been characterized as uninterested in religion, as defectors from religious institutions, and as agnostic about the role of religious identity in their culture. Amid the rise of so-called "nones," though, there has also been a countervailing trend: an increase in religious piety among some millennial Catholics. The Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS), which began evangelizing college students on American university campuses in 1998, hires recent college graduates to evangelize college students and promote an attractive and culturally savvy Catholicism. These millennial Catholics have personal relationships with Jesus, attend Mass daily, and know and defend papal teachings, while also being immersed in U.S. popular culture. With their skinny jeans, devotional tattoos, and large-framed glasses, FOCUS missionaries embody a hip, attractive style of Catholicism. They promote a faith that interweaves distinctly Catholic identity with outreach methods of twentieth-century evangelical Protestants and the anxieties of middle-class emerging adulthood. Though this new generation of missionaries lives according to strict gender essentialism prescribed by papal teachings-including the notions that men lead while women follow and that biology dictates gender roles-they also support stay-at-home fatherhood and women earning MBAs. Millennial Missionaries examines how these young people navigate their Catholic and American identities in the twenty-first century. Illuminating the ways missionaries are reshaping American Catholic identity, Katherine Dugan explores the contemporary U.S. religious landscape from the perspective of millennials who proudly proclaim "I am Catholic"-and devote years of their lives to convincing others to do the same.

Book excerpt: What was it like for a young Christian girl to grow up in Pakistan? THE DESPICABLE MISSIONARY is a true story that traces the life of Victoria from birth to a young adult, as she leans to defend her faith, and love Muslims. Follow her though turbulent political times from Partition, through military dictatorship and the Muslim revolution in Pakistan. Learn what she learned about forgiveness and love for the man she was engaged to as a child, who abandoned her, and years later returned to ask her to marry him. Then, as immigrants in the United States, live with her through the tragedy of 9-11, the stereotyping by Americans of immigrants from Pakistan, and the time when she finds her voice, telling of the love God has for all people, even enemies. THE DESPICABLE MISSIONARY is a testimony by someone who chose to live in Jesus' Way, a life that brought peace and comfort to those who suffer.
