"The WRF General Assembly held in Johannesburg in 2006 was one of the best theological consultations I have ever attended. It was a serious attempt to probe into global, contemporary and relevant issues that concern every Christian. The presentations by the speakers from all the continents were not only informative, but inspiring and challenging. Now these all come in ONE book. It is a call to concerted action. I read the book to re-live my experience that week. For those who were not there, reading the book is the next best thing." Wilson W. Chow, President Emeritus, China Graduate School of Theology Hong Kong

"We live in a world in which millions live on less than $2 a day, in which countless women and girls are trafficked and victimized, in which wars wage and displace whole communities, and in which myriads of people have never heard the good news of the world's redemption in Jesus Christ. The contributors to this book know, often first-hand, the brokenness of this world, and yet they give us hope, hope for a church that is more fully united, more fully engaged, more fully participating in God's work of renewal. These essays do more than confront kingdom challenges; they show us how to bear the burden, and bear it together as brothers and sisters in Christ." - Dr. Craig Higgins, Senior Pastor of Trinity Presbyterian Church in Rye, New York

"For the first time in history the church of Christ is being confronted all at once with the sorrows and evil of the entire world. Confronting Kingdom Challenges brings together some of the best and most powerful responses spoken by leaders in the Reformed church who are in the middle of it. This book--presentations made at the General Assembly of the World Reformed Fellowship--is a 'must read' if one wishes to grasp the wide dimension of what Christ's church must do and is doing." - Dr. K. Eric Perrin, Senior Pastor of Cornerstone Presbyterian Church in Columbia, South Carolina

"What do peace-making in Israel, sex-trafficking in Brazil, Christian radio broadcasts in China, AIDS in Nairobi, the homeless in London, and neo-paganism in Europe have in common? They are a sampling of the places Jesus is taking the healing light of the gospel. And they are all ministry areas practically and theologically assessed in Confronting Kingdom Challenges. For believers who tend to stay focused on the needs before them, this book, breathing a winsome spirit of kingdom cooperation, is an essential read for how to pray, think and act for the enormous burden of global ministry." - Rev,. Michael Sharrett, Senior Pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Lynchburg, Virginia

"I accepted the invitation to become involved in the inaugural meeting of the World Reformed Fellowship in 2000 because I thought that the vision for this new organization would meet a real need in the Reformed community. The conference in 2006 in South Africa served to confirm everything for which I had hoped and reaffirmed for me the value of WRF. The lectures and sermons delivered in South Africa were profound and helpful, as everyone who reads the book will discover for themselves. I commend it to you." - Dr. A. T. B. McGowan, Principal of Highland Theological College in Dingwall, Scotland
