Across the church, there is a rift between theology and missions. Bad theology produces bad missions, and bad missions fuel bad theology. We wrongly think that we must choose between making a global impact and thinking deeply about the things of God. But the relationship between theology and missions is symbiotic—one cannot exist without the other. They walk hand in hand.

God’s Word never denies that dwelling in a fallen world is hard or pretends that any of us are promised a life free from suffering and trial. Quite the opposite. But it makes just as clear that the Almighty is neither shaken nor surprised by anything that befalls us.

Underneath all these themes, Philippians is a book of mission.
