Editor's Bookshelf: Fighting Within and Fears Without

Darrell Bock thinks theologians should have a mission

Bock thinks there is also much evangelical scholars can do to serve the church in our understanding of the world's religions. And scholars can serve the church in the emerging concern with spiritual formation as well. Joining forces around a few basics, a diverse group of scholars can experience evangelical fellowship while helping the church and the world meet the challenges of our day. Bock calls that Purpose-Directed Theology. Whatever you call it, it is missional thinking that will pay off.
