Ed Stetzer is among the clearest speakers and writers on the "missional movement" in the church today. The video quality here is not very high, but I share it with you because Stetzer offers a very good explanation to those who are interested in understanding how mission is a integral part of the calling of the church.

Tim Keller is the pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City. He has written some extraordinary books and articles dealing with how Christians relate to and engage with society, particularly the city. Here he describes Jesus' metaphor of salt and light and how it is applied by two very different theologians: Dutch politician Abraham Kuyper and American professor Stanley Hauerwas, who teaches at Duke.

Here is Pastor Mark Driscoll speaking on the missional church. If you are unfamiliar with the concept of what it means to be missional, this is a good primer. I will be speaking on this topic during Missions Month, Oct.10-31, at King Street Church. Between now and then I am going to focus the posts of this blog on understanding what it means to be on mission with Jesus in the world.
