Quotes from David Bosch

Our missionary activities are only authentic insofar as they reflect participation in the mission of God.

Mission is not primarily an activity of the church, but an attribute of God.

The church is not made up of spiritual giants; only broken men can lead others to the cross.

To participate in mission is to participate in the movement of God's love toward people, since God is a fountain of sending love.

Missionary activity is not so much the work of the church as simply the Church at work.
