  <abstract>The aim of this book is to begin a discussion about early Christian mission that will impact how we think about and approach mission today. To facilitate this, each chapter includes a relevant passage of Scripture as well as reflections where connections between early church and contemporary church practice can be made. Each chapter closes with some questions for reflection-points that will facilitate dialogue with Scripture and early church practice as the present global church moves forward in mission.</abstract>
