THE MISSION MANDATE By Andrew Abah

God’s heartbeat is centered on reaching all humanity irrespective of where they are located with the gospel. Jesus came to this world just for that. Having finished His own part of the work, He mandated us to go ahead with the message across the globe but alas, this commission has suddenly become the great omission. This book is a special appeal for the church to return to that mandate.

HOLISTIC APPROACH TO MISSIONS SUPPORT By Andrew Abah


Many agencies and sending churches have lost a number of valuable missionaries due to inadequate support. The alarming rate of this attrition is responsible for a closer study on the subject mission support which gave birth to this handbook. It stresses the need for agencies, partners and sending churches to systematically explore the various areas of mission support beyond finance.
The list is endless but for the purpose of being precise the author focused mainly on prayer, moral, communication , logistic, monetary, etc The book also provides an insight into how emerging mission leaders should take care of their missionary personnel and how best the missionary supporters should appropriate their supports for maximum result.

NURSING YOUR MISSIONARY VISION By Andrew Abah


Nursing Your Missionary Vision is a small but very powerful book written with those newly called into missions in mind. It is a systematic exploration of how such missionaries should nurse and build their missionary vision without falling by the wayside. It began by redefining whom a missionary is, how to confirm that one is genuinely called into missions, and gave insight into the practical steps one ought to take to bring the vision to fruition.

SLEEPING CHURCH DYING WORLD By Andrew Abah

On August 22 – 26, 2006 missionaries and other stakeholders in world evangelization from several states in Nigeria and surrounding African countries gathered in Kaduna, Nigeria to deliberate on the theme: Sleeping Church, Dying World. The venue was the Chapel of Goodnews’ Missions Week. The author was privileged to serve as one of the guest speakers. During his presentations, several of the mission leaders present requested that the materials be published in book form so that the wider body of Christ could benefit from it.
It is this request that led to this publication. The book serves as an eye-opener to the position the body of Christ occupies in the world. It attempts to understand the place of missions in the early church and compares it with what we have in the church today. It also highlight the need to pattern our ministry after Jesus as “it is enough for a disciple to be like his Master” with emphasis on leaving our comfort zone for where Jesus had not been preached. The concluding challenge is that no responsible Christian is exempted from playing very crucial role in missions. You either GO or you stay back home to GIVE and PRAY.
