Reaching and Teaching: A Call to Great Commission Obedience
While evangelism and church planting are essential components of a biblical missions program, they are merely the first wave of the task to which we have been called. Reaching and Teaching surveys contemporary missions methodologies and advocates a return to the biblical task of reaching and teaching the nations for Christ’s sake. Outlining issues essential to establishing a ministry that results in discipled and trained national believers, Sills provides examples of what is left in the wake of reaching and leaving too quickly. Whether you are a seasoned missionary, student, or newly curious about missions, Reaching and Teaching will reveal ways you can be more faithful to what Christ has called and equipped you to do.
The Missionary Call: Find Your Place in God's Plan for the World
Christians of all ages recognize the heartbeat of God to take the Gospel to the nations and often wrestle with the implications of the Great Commission in their own lives. The Missionary Call explores the biblical, historical, and practical aspects of discerning and following God’s call to nations. Dr. Sills addresses common misconceptions about the missionary call while also answering key practical questions on the minds of those discerning a call to missions. Whether you know you are called, or are still struggling to know God’s will, The Missionary Call will help you discern your place in God’s plan for the world.

Feedback
“David Sills has addressed the single, burning issue in this, the greatest era of mission expansion in the history of the Christian Church. The Missionary Call presents a powerful, scripturally sound and convincing response for anyone considering a vocation in missions. I would urge every pastor and church missions leader to keep multiple copies of this book on hand as a reliable resource for anyone considering the call to missions.”
-Tom Elliff- President, IMB
“[In Reaching & Teaching] David Sills makes the argument that a holistic and biblical methodology for missions must include both search and harvest strategies. It must include evangelism and discipleship, church planting and theological training. Each of these are essential elements in reaching the nations for King Jesus. To neglect even one is to do serious damage to the task of world missions. This book is long overdue. I welcome its arrival. I pray for its implementation.””
"Dr. Sills leads his readers through a methodical evaluation of the complexities of a missionary calling without being formulaic or unnecessarily mysterious. The Missionary Call should be in the tool kit of anyone exploring a calling to cross-cultural ministry. I will recommend it to all of Wycliffe’s candidates."
"Reaching every people group with the gospel is the task of the church. In Reaching and Teaching, Sills provides helpful guidance about the pace of the discipleship and training process of indigenous church leaders. With passion, he calls on missionaries, agencies, and the church to make theological training a cornerstone in the work of reaching the nations for Christ."
"All mission-minded believers should read Reaching and Teaching. All missionaries should put its principles into practice. All instructors should read and teach it. This to the establishment and maturation of Christian churches all around the world."
