The field of missional hermeneutics of Scripture, to our great encouragement, continues to produce abundant fruit. This collection of essays offering a diverse range of missional readings of 1 Peter is a worthy successor to the editors’ earlier collaboration in Reading Hebrews Missiologically: The Missionary Motive, Message, and Methods of Hebrews. The book is outstanding not only in the breadth and detail of the topics covered along with extensive bibliographies for further enquiry, but significantly for the diversity of the contributors, many of whom bring illuminating insights and applications from their majority world contexts. A most welcome and enriching contribution to the task of reading the whole Bible with a missional lens.
