Christ Our Reconciler:
Gospel. Church. World

The Lausanne Movement (IVP, © 2012)

A collection of presentations given during the Third Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization in Cape Town, South Africa, in 2010, Christ Our Reconciler features remarks from John Piper, Os Guinness, Tim Keller and many others. S. Douglas Birdsall, executive chair of The Lausanne Movement, writes in the foreword: “John Stott loved to remind us that Christ gave gifts to the church to share. He referred to The Lausanne Movement rather beautifully as ‘an exchange of gifts.’ We offer this book as a gift from the church on all continents to the church in your nation. May it be a means of enriching one another in our grasp of Scripture, and in our love of Christ.”
