David Bosch (1929-1992) was one of the foremost mission theologians of the twentieth century, at once a prolific scholar, committed church leader, and active participant in the global conciliar and evangelical mission movements. Less well known is Bosch's distinctive role in the South African church's struggle against apartheid. After reviewing Bosch's background and exploring key themes in his understanding of mission and evangelism, Livingston explores Bosch's legacy from the perspective of the missionary nature of the church. The church is God's kingdom community, acting as a witness to and instrument of the coming reign of God. The church is God's alternative community, simultaneously set apart from the world but also for the sake of the world, exemplifying the radical implications of Christ's new community. The church is God's reconciled and reconciling community, serving as a sign and embodiment of God's love in Christ. For those acquainted with Bosch only as the author of his magisterial Transforming Mission, Livingston shows how Bosch integrated his theology and practice in a faithful, contextually relevant way within South Africa and the global church.

"We are going to the Next Level" Romans 8:18-22 It is the time for the fulfillment of the manifestation of the sons of God to come forth in the power, authority and dominion of God's given glory anointing to His church. This can only be done in the Spirit realm, not in the soulish realm. In the soulish realm, our will, mind, emotions (man's intellect) hindered man from the level of spirituality that God is taking the church to at this time. We must be willing to be lead by the Holy Spirit at this time. On this level of awareness, God will put man in position to bring about a change in the earth (the manifestation of the sons of God). I believe this will be the church's finest hour. The church will arise in the power of a Holy and righteous God; we will demonstrate the power, authority and dominion which the first Adam gave away in the soulish realm. We must have a new consciousness, knowing something better or greater awaits the body of Christ. When we are connected to the Holy Spirit and He is in full control of our lives, this will determine the strength, stability and the power that will be made available to the body of Christ. We have been extended an opportunity to usher the manifestation of the sons of God into this earth realm; the Kingdom of God is such a lovely place, right here on earth. Praise God! Beatrice Smith is currently a member of Word of Faith Family Worship Cathedral in Austell, Georgia. She and her daughter (Natalie), and grandchildren live in Powder Springs, Georgia.

The daughter of a Chinese mother and a Japanese father, Gail Tsukiyama's The Samurai's Garden uses the Japanese invasion of China during the late 1930s as a somber backdrop for this extraordinary story. A 20-year-old Chinese painter named Stephen is sent to his family's summer home in a Japanese coastal village to recover from a bout with tuberculosis. Here he is cared for by Matsu, a reticent housekeeper and a master gardener. Over the course of a remarkable year, Stephen learns Matsu's secret and gains not only physical strength, but also profound spiritual insight. Matsu is a samurai of the soul, a man devoted to doing good and finding beauty in a cruel and arbitrary world, and Stephen is a noble student, learning to appreciate Matsu's generous and nurturing way of life and to love Matsu's soulmate, gentle Sachi, a woman afflicted with leprosy.
