Vatican II’s famous declaration that “the church on earth is by its very nature missionary”has often been taken out of context and used to support all manner ofchurch initiatives. But, the conclusion of the statement—“since . . . it has its originin the mission of the Son and the Holy Spirit”—is of monumental importance.In The Way of Discipleship , theologian Anthony Gittins describes the eternalmission of the Trinity, historically brought “down to earth” in the ministry of Jesusand then continued to the ends of the earth by those called and sent as disciplesthroughout future generations. Gittins explains that Christian discipleship must bethe living out of Jesus’ own example in many different times and places. He encouragespeople of all ages to follow the invitation of Jesus to be missionary disciples.The Way of Discipleship explores several New Testament examples of Jesus’ calland commissioning, distills the principles involved, and then recontextualizes thestories so that they pose a direct challenge to disciples today. In this way, Gittinsbuilds up a picture both of “the Way” of Jesus himself, and of the way today’s disciplescan loyally follow his call to mission.
