In this concise version of \u003cem\u003eGod Shines Forth\u003c\/em\u003e, Daniel Hames and Michael Reeves urge Christians to grow in their knowledge and enjoyment of God—as they know God more, they will be spurred on to authentic service through missions and evangelism. To illustrate how the nature of God influences evangelism and missions, Hames and Reeves address biblical themes such as the glory of God, Christ’s sacrifice, the fallenness of man, and the church’s future hope. They invite readers to look to Jesus as the glory of God in the world, which is the Christian’s ultimate motivation to share the love of God with others. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the concise edition of \u003cem\u003e\u003ca title=\"God Shines Forth by Daniel Hames \u0026amp; Michael Reeves\" href=\"https:\/\/reformers.com.au\/products\/9781433575143-god-shines-forth-how-the-nature-of-god-shapes-and-drives-the-mission-of-the-church-michael-reeves-daniel-hames\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGod Shines Forth\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eby Daniel Hames \u0026amp; Michael Reeves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e80 pages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-section-header\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-section-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIntroduction: The Great Admission\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: The Glory of God\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: The Lamb on His Throne\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Fullness\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Emptiness\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Born in Zion\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Arise, Shine!\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Those Who Look to Him Are Radiant\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: We Will See Him as He Is\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Crossway","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39828153106511,"sku":"9781433575181","price":14.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2773\/2624\/products\/9781433575181-what-fuels-the-mission-of-the-church-daniel-hamesmichael-reeves.png?v=1668987068"},{"product_id":"9781433575143-god-shines-forth-how-the-nature-of-god-shapes-and-drives-the-mission-of-the-church-michael-reeves-daniel-hames","title":"God Shines Forth: How the Nature of God Shapes and Drives the Mission of the Church","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eEvangelism and missions are parts of the Christian life often accompanied by fears, insecurities, and cultural pressures.

The affirmation ‘Jesus is Lord’ and similar creed-like assertions adorn the pages of the New Testament. It has only been under the impress of the Enlightenment project in the West that Christians have conceived of a non-confessional approach to being a Christian. This fresh study of creeds and their importance by Dr. Reeves is therefore most welcome. It is a vital reminder of why we need robust statements of faith. Highly recommended.” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichael A.G.
