For the Church of the Nazarene, creating a climate for the Holiness message is our primary purpose. It is in that climate and against the landscape of shattering global events that we work. It is here and now that disciples are made, nurtured, and incorporated into the indigenous Body of Christ.Vistas is the attempt by several writers to give a taste of what's happening on the mission field. With great consideration and hope, Franklin Cook has compiled these six essays authored by noted members and leaders of the denomination.

Here they offer you an understanding—a vista—of the landscape of missions.The LANDSCAPES series explores the driving forces that have brought the Church of the Nazarene to where it is today.96 pages.
