Introduction to the Missional Church

There is a growing body of literature about the missional church, but the word missional is often defined in competing ways with little attempt to ground it deeply in Scripture.

About Michael Goheen

Michael Goheen, a dynamic speaker and the coauthor of two popular texts on the biblical narrative, unpacks the missional identity of the church by tracing the role God's people are called to play in the biblical story.

The Biblical Narrative and Church Identity

Goheen shows that the church's identity can be understood only when its role is articulated in the context of the whole biblical story—not just the New Testament, but the Old Testament as well.

Practical Applications

He also explores practical outworkings and implications, offering field-tested suggestions for contemporary churches.
