Should mission organizations or sending churches conduct their own in-house training? What is the role of Bible colleges and seminaries in equipping for mission today?

J. Harris's quote, \"The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows,\" serves as an invitation for theologians and missiologists to revisit how education and missionary work intersect in our dynamic world. This perspective encourages the global church to extend its vision outward, using these “windows” to engage more effectively as it carries out the Great Commission. This volume is a commendable step towards realizing this aspiration.\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ccite\u003eRev Riad Kassis, PhD\u003c\/cite\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInternational Director, Langham Partnership \u003c\/span\u003e [\/ENDORSEMENT2] [ENDORSEMENT3]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003ePartnering with humility and grace in God’s great global mission, this book is an extraordinary collection that provides both dreams and innovative approaches for mission education in the contemporary world.
