If our systematics speak nothing or even little to our mission in the world, is it useful at all? If our presentation of the gospel does not meet people in any pragmatic way, what good is it? Many blogs, books, and conversations continually remind me of interpreting, theologizing, etc. with the intent of it being missional in nature. Thanks for this reminder!Jeffrey Rudy:https://www.blogger.com/profile/14872312367701635329noreply@blogger.com
