“The reach of Jesus is, we sing, ‘far as the curse is found.’ Jesus calls his Body into all spaces of earthly life—as sick, ruined, and corrupt as they may be. Sam Logan has assembled a book that reminds those of us within the reformed tradition that our attention to truth is always in some practical sense for the sake of the world—not as an abstract proclamation, but to embody in real, though incomplete and imperfect, ways his future now. This collection of essays not only reminds us of the missional aim of Christ, but helps us imagine the reach of Christ far as the curse is found.”

“At a time when some people are asking how to be Reformed and missional at the same time, this book comes to show that being Reformed IS to be INTRINSICALLY missional. Written from different perspectives, with specific foci, the book is honest to its title, as it challenges us to see, in practice, just how true it is that being really Reformed and being really Missional are one and the same!”

“The European Reformers followed Jesus, the eternal Creator who lived in time–space history as a provincial carpenter–turned–rabbi, into their particular worlds half–a–millennium ago. In exemplary fashion, our reforming forefathers were both faithful to God’s enduring covenant and relevant to their contemporary settings. This volume’s heartening example of semper reformans, semper reformanda (‘always reformed, always reforming’) serves today’s world Christian movement well toward following Jesus in faithful, relevant, and ‘missional’ ways.”

This extraordinary collection of essays explores from many angles how the gospel translates into God’s people serving as his instruments of redemptive healing in a very broken world. It will help us follow Jesus more faithfully into his world that his kingdom may come on earth as it is in heaven.”

“God is a missionary God. He reaches out to claim and bless His people and through them to bless others. When God called Abraham, He said to him: ‘I will bless you... so that you will be a blessing...and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’ We are called by God to be missionaries, to be ‘missional.’ We cannot all reach all families of the earth; but we can reach some families near or far. This book will help you become intentional in your focus to be missional in some area where you can have influence. Where are you a blessing? Where are you missional?”

“Reformed Means Missional is a foundational and strategic call to all in the Reformed tradition to truly be His church, on His mission taking the Whole Gospel to the Whole World. My friend, Sam Logan, understands this reality and articulates this call, both in terms of its theological groundings and its global implications, more persuasively than anyone I know. This book is required reading for any leader in the Reformed tradition who wants to be able to participate in 21st century conversations with respect to the Reformational church and the core of Christ’s calling.”

“Building on ‘Mission and Evangelism’ in the WRF Statement of Faith, Reformed Means Missional brings theological substance to ‘missional.’ ensuring the term doesn’t become a passing fad. A collection of the world’s top Reformed thinkers have provided rich, compelling insights as to how the church in the 21st century must change the way it thinks and behaves if it is sent into the world to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ and promote the expansion of His Kingdom.”

“In Reformed Means Missional, Dr. Sam Logan brings together both well known authors and some hidden jewels of the church who labor, Jesus–like, in dark places, and serve the least and the lowest. Refreshingly, the theorists are also practitioners, while the practitioners think biblically and theologically about how God’s mission shapes their work. The result? This wide–ranging volume, which is calculated to give mind, conscience, and, yes, emotions also, a serious, gospel work out.”
