Spirit Outside the Gate (Missiological Engagements)
by Oscar Garcia-Johnson
Throughout the history of the Christian church, two narratives have constantly clashed: the imperial logic of Babel that builds towers and borders to seize control, versus the logic of Pentecost that empowers "glocal" missionaries of the kingdom life.

These same questions, however, did not have the same...
