Pastor, consultant, and award-winning author Art Beals challenges churches to see each member as a potential missionary; in so doing, churches return full circle to the New Testament church model of ministry. Founded in trinitarian theology, Beal’s practical advice explores congregation-based mission, explains how to creatively mobilize resources for mission, and discusses how to train and care for volunteers. Beal’s model for outreach emphasizes principles for partnership that provide mutual empowerment and long-term commitment.
Art Beels is the founder of World Concern International and has served as pastor in churches in Washington, Oregon, and the Philippines. His book Beyond Hunger: A Biblical Mandate for Social Responsibility was awarded the Gold Medallion Book Award by the Evangelical Christian Literature Association.
