9Marks Guide Empowers Believers to Reach the Last Languages with the Gospel Through Long-Term, Church-Centered Missions Jesus told his followers that salvation “should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem (Luke 24:47).” But different characteristics between people groups—including language, lineage, laws, and land—can make it difficult to reach those who have no access to the gospel. If believers are to fulfill the Great Commission, they must be equipped to navigate these barriers. In this brief guide, Brooks Buser and Justin Harris help missionaries and their sending churches reach unreached language groups through effective, biblical missions strategies. Buser shares from his experience living with the Yembiyembi people, translating the scriptures into their native tongue and teaching them the Bible until a church was planted. Harris writes from a local perspective, explaining how churches provide a healthy foundation for international missions. Together, they detail how to build and strengthen churches around the world, emphasizing long-term health, not hurry. Offering an effective, biblical strategy for global evangelism, this guide equips believers to reach the last languages with God’s word. Comprehensive: Offers focused, long-term strategies for planting and strengthening churches in majority and minority languages Insightful: Draws wisdom from the authors’ own experiences as missionaries, as well as Scripture and the accomplishments of missionaries throughout church history Accessible: Written to guide pastors, staff, and missions-minded Christians in developing a healthy view of missions Part of the 9Marks Church-Centered Missions Series

Timely and important revised edition of a significant, influential classic text which is still peerless in the field. This new edition builds on Jane Willis’s classic textbook to reflect the changing needs and priorities of language teachers in today’s classrooms. The book has been revised and expanded to reflect the widespread use of technology and the internet in language classrooms, as well as recent debates and developments in research on language learning. The book maintains the practical focus that has made the first edition of the book the leading resource on implementing Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) for over 30 years. Readers will find practical examples of task-based sequences and form focus activities for all levels, including beginners, that can be used in their own classrooms. It gives an integrated picture of TBLT that addresses the reasons for using this increasingly popular pedagogy, as well as addressing and suggesting solutions for potential difficulties.

The predominant religion in many parts of the world today is expressive individualism. It shapes the religious intuitions of our non-Christian neighbors, our children, and even ourselves in the church. Understanding expressive individualism and how it has impacted the church is crucial for pastoral ministry.

We believe every local church should be characterized by expository preaching, biblical theology, a biblical understanding of the gospel and of conversion, biblical evangelism, church membership, church discipline, discipleship, and a biblical model of leadership. In order to inform and influence churches, 9Marks creates a wide variety of practical resources including books, articles, podcasts, book reviews, and a quarterly Journal. We also host regular events around the world-almost all of them geared toward equipping and encouraging pastors.

She wiped her brow with her right arm before pulling her sleeves to her elbows revealing a simple black tattoo on her left forearm. The characters "23C9T798Z" had been etched into her skin the day she was born. It was a part of her. It was her name. Two-3, as her family called her, had always had questions. Did she voice them? No. No one questioned things, but she knew she wasn't the only one with doubts. Or was she? Her father had vanished years before leaving Two-3 and her little sister, Eight-R, to be raised by their mother. Most days, however, the daughters were the caregivers. A state-mandated drug kept their mother in a drunken stupor. When Eight-R vanishes while participating in a new government treatment program Two-3 has no choice but to seek answers. What she finds is far worse than she had ever imagined.
