Becoming the Gospel: Paul, Participation, and Mission (The Gospel and Our Culture Series (GOCS))

The first detailed exegetical treatment of Paulâ€™s letters from the emerging discipline of missional hermeneutics, Michael Gormanâ€™s Becoming the Gospel argues that Paulâ€™s letters invite Christian communities both then and now to not merely believe the gospel but to become the gospel and, in doing so, to participate in the life and mission of God.

Showing that Pauline churches were active public participants in and witnesses to the gospel, Gorman reveals the missional significance of various themes in Paulâ€™s letters. He also identifies select contemporary examples of mission in the spirit of Paul, inviting all Christians to practice Paul-inspired imagination in their own contexts.
