One of the goals of the Henry Center is to produce resources from our initiatives which benefit an audience beyond those in attendance. As a result, we have co-sponsored a variety of initiatives which either have, or will soon, culminate in the production of a book.
2007 | The Great Commission, Ed. Martin Klauber and Scott M. Manetsch, Broadman and Holman Publishing Group
The Great Commission provides a substantial historical survey of evangelical missions courtesy of eleven different authors, each one a prominent evangelical church historian and theologian who has written extensively on the history of Christianity and the greater mission of the church. Readers will learn the origins and development of modern evangelical missionary activity, what led to the globalization of the Evangelical movement, and the finer points of the movement’s successes, failures, and future imperatives. Sections include Early Modern Europe (“The Protestant Reformation,” “Puritanism and Pietism,” “The Evangelical Revival”), Modern America (“Early American Missions,” “Twentieth Century American Missions,” “The Baptist Contribution”), and The Majority Church (“Latin America,” “Asia,” “Africa”).

2006 | This Side of Heaven, Ed. Robert J. Priest and Alvaro Nieves, Oxford University Press
Christian scholars have become increasingly aware of their responsibility to recognize and respond to the challenges posed by ethnic and racial diversity. Similarly, historically white Christian colleges, universities, seminaries and congregations are struggling to transform themselves into communities that are welcoming to minorities and sensitive to their needs. This collection of new essays is meant to enable those who are engaged in these initiatives to understand the historical linkage of race, ethnicity and Christianity and to explore the ways in which constructive change can be achieved.
