Description
This 1995 Regent College Summer Public Lecture is centered around the missiological significance of Deuteronomy. Picking up on the meaning of 'crossing of border' in the word 'mission', Dr. Wright identifies the twofold missiological relevance of Deuteronomy. The first relevance is found in its teaching on how to love God in the context of 'crossing the border' of culture - culture change. The second relevance derives from that fact that the Israelites were entrusted with the mission of the monotheistic knowledge of the living God.
