    Why do American Christians travel overseas to reach people in distant lands, but neglect ministering to people who immigrate from those lands to their home communities?
    Why does Western missions funding depend on narratives that marginalize indigenous leadership?
    Why are diaspora Christians from the Global South not seen as legitimate missionaries to the West?
    Western mission often still centers the senders, without as much understanding of the experiences of the receivers. Mekdes Haddis, an Ethiopian now living in the United States, provides a postcolonial critique of Western mission, upending the white savior complex and arguing for a more globally just approach. A Just Mission examines evangelical mission from the perspective of the receiver, highlighting areas of weakness and naming injustices.
    Unveiling the negative impact of Western mission on the global church, Haddis addresses how white supremacy infiltrates and subverts mission organizations' good intentions, disrupting grassroots missions and local leadership development. Weaving together theology and Scripture with stories from people of color and diaspora groups, A Just Mission offers hope that the mission and message of Jesus can indeed become good news for all.

    Is sexuality so sacred that God has destroyed entire civilizations that were immoral?  
    Sexually perverse practices are everywhere. The world lies in sin, and in this day and age, it may be even harder than ever to escape from it. Or is it? Sexual conduct and the sanctity of marriage have always been in God’s interest, and they should be one of our highest priorities as well.  
    In this audiobook, the author doesn’t beat around the bush when he condemns sexually inappropriate behavior, false theories, or erroneous assumptions. At the same time, the words emanate a certain understanding to those who struggle with addictions or boundaries. He lays it all out clearly and emphatically, also focusing on topics such as: The difference between lust and love and how to distinguish one from the other.Confusing messages and deceitful myths about sexuality debunked, including but not limited to nudists, gay marriage, abortion, masturbation, pornography, or simply sexual fantasies.How the devil uses false ideas to mislead us and cause misery.A peek into the dark industry of human slavery and the atrocities that happen behind the scenes of porn production.Scriptural references to encouragement, warnings, and stories, both from the Old and the New Testament.How King David’s horrible sin backfired on him big time, causing major guilt and losses he didn’t consider at the time he committed adultery and murder.God’s perspective on sex and families and how we can interpret the scripture not to commit adultery in our hearts. 
    As you hear the examples and the immensity of sexual immorality and its consequences, you will see things from a different light.

Infamous similarities to church schisms during the 4th through 5th century A.D. are cited, as well as cautions about the possibility of similar outcomes.
