Missiology for Mobilizers with Justin Schell

If someone challenged you to preach a missions sermon from Song of Solomon, could you do it? Or would you even want to? Today, we’ll hear from Justin Schell, Director of Executive Projects at the Lausanne Movement, and author of the newly-released book, Come and See: A History and Theology of Mission. Justin and Dave discuss "Missiology for Mobilizers,” helping us understand the grand narrative of the Bible and why it’s vital for today’s mobilizers. 

Here’s what the two discussed:

  1. Tell us about the book and why you wrote it.

  2. Why is it titled, Come and See vs. a more missions-focused title such as, Go and Tell?

  3. What is the relationship between theology and mission and how does that impact mobilization?

  4. How is bad theology impacting the Great Commission today? 

  5. Can you share a few Scripture passages on missions that we don’t usually consider as being missional?
