A new wineskin / Hovering Spirit, creative voice, empowered transformation : a retrospective / Incarnational : the first sign / Missional : the second sign / Marginal : the third sign / Devotional : the fourth sign / Communal : the fifth sign / Epilogue : challenges and possibilities for a new generation of mission workers / Scott Bessenecker -- Viv Grigg -- Craig and Nayhouy Greenfield -- Derek Engdahl and Jean-Luc Krieg -- Christopher L. Heuertz and David Chronic -- Phileena Heuertz and Darren Prince -- José Peñate Aceves and John Hayes -- Ash Barker.
"God's kingdom in the hands of the people of God, the contributors show us, is first and foremost incarnational, which leads necessarily to gospel witness that is devotional, communal, missional and marginal. With a survey of the history of new friar movements and commentary by forerunner Viv Grigg, this seminal book paints a picture of mission that is new only because it has been neglected for so long, a mission that is truly good news to the people in its path."--From back cover
