Book Description
"How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!" —Romans 10:15 Sometimes women feel like we're not cut out for evangelism. We may worry that our female bodies get in the way of our witness, or that we will seem awkward or pushy. We can feel insecure, like what we do won't make a difference in leading people to Jesus. Evangelist Jessica Leep Fick believes that God has created women to go to amazing and ordinary places to share his love. We have aptitudes and abilities that God can use in his mission, like gifts of collaboration, empathy and the ability to share vulnerably. Women throughout Scripture were heralds of the gospel, and we can be too. Get ready to join Jessica and women across the globe on this adventure of sharing Jesus with confidence and love. This upbeat, motivating guide will unleash what God has created in you to boldly and lovingly share Jesus. Discover how you too have beautiful feet.

Book Description
The Great Commission is something that every Christian is exposed to. Go and make disciples is the command that has echoed through history as Jesus words. But to whom was he speaking? At some point in our walks, we just cannot contain Gods goodness and his message. But where do we go? And how do we do it? Stories inspire us to do more and be more, but what does more look like? In Beautiful Feet, Marcus King shares his story of how he understood that when he heard Jesus last words echo into his time, it was because Christ was speaking to him. God shaped his dream of becoming a missionary to more than he had imagined. Using journals and blogs that he kept and poems that he wrote, Marcus challenges us to see missions as something for all of us, wherever we are, whatever we do.

This is no ordinary missions book. The theme isn't new, but the approach is refreshing and compelling, as contributors David Platt, Louie Giglio, Michael Ramsden, Ed Stetzer, Michael Oh, David Mathis, and John Piper take up the mantle of the Great Commission and its Spirit-powered completion. From astronomy to exegesis, from apologetics to the Global South, from being missional at home to employing our resources in the global cause, Finish the Mission aims to breathe fresh missionary fire into a new generation, as together we seek to reach the unreached and engage the unengaged.
