Glocalization: How Followers of Jesus Engage a Flat World
'In Glocalization, Roberts...outlines six practices the church should adopt to be wise as serpents and innocent as doves in the glocal world. All six are excellent, and by confronting some well-established missionary habits, a few have the potential to be revolutionary....Roberts' inspiring stories from Communist and Islamic nations reinforce his claim that no country is closed to the gospel, just to our usual methods of bringing it....Many pastors have learned ministry techniques by mimicking corporate strategies and good management. In the new flat earth, the entire church must learn to be missionaries, and this will once again require all of the Holy Spirit's gifts, comfort, counsel, power, and fruit....After reading the book, I'm inspired to take the gospel into all the world, starting in my own cul-de-sac.'
