Today, many pastors face the challenge of adapting to a post-Christian culture while maintaining orthodox theology. How can we effectively communicate grace and substitutionary atonement in our globalized context? This book offers insightful perspectives and thought-provoking questions drawn from over twenty years of ministry experience in New York City. It presents a theological vision for ministry that applies classic doctrines to contemporary issues, organized around three core commitments: * Gospel-centered: The transformative power of the gospel of grace in Jesus Christ reshapes our hearts, communities, and the world, influencing the content, tone, and strategy of our actions. * City-centered: Emphasizing a positive view of culture, we recognize cities as strategic and underserved areas ripe for gospel ministry. * Movement-centered: Rather than focusing on building our own tribe, we strive for the prosperity and peace of our communities, guided by the Holy Spirit. In this European edition, edited by Dr. Stefan Paas, eight theologians respond to Keller's observations, providing a unique perspective on city mission in America versus gospel preaching in Europe. Contributors include notable figures such as Leonardo De Chirico, Michael Herbst, and others. The European Evangelical Alliance also adds a Postscript outlining its vision for church developments in Europe.
