Reviews"A masterful blend of theology about God, the practical relevance of knowing God in one's journey of preparation for cross-cultural ministry, and obedience in following God in the practice of ministry." --Sherwood Lingenfelter, senior professor of anthropology, Fuller Theological Seminary "Engaging, practical, and grounded--this book will be essential reading for anyone serving cross-culturally. If embraced, the content of this book will exponentially increase the likelihood of effective ministry." --Joanna Lima, associate international director, Pioneers "This book distills a philosophy of ministry born from life experience and leadership experience. Ed plants the flag of spirituality in knowing God. In a world rocked by shifting morality, cultural upheaval, and an avalanche of spiritual challenges, this is a much-needed call." --Ted Esler, president, Missio Nexus "For many years in ministry, I was always looking for a book I could give to future cross-culture servants. I found it. The title is Knowing God to Make Him Known . . . . As I read, I saw Ed's heart for reaching the least reached peoples of the world and training those who go. This book will be a blessing and a challenge to anyone in ministry. Ed Scheuerman hit a home run." --Tom Telford, missions mobilizer, United World Mission "The unique value of this book is that all the principles Dr. Scheuerman masterfully handles for effective cross-cultural service are intertwined with the attributes of God. As such the book is theocentric in application and practice. The author's role of teaching a wide spectrum of mission-related topics on the Bible college level makes him knowledgeable in both the importance of knowing God and making him known." --Marvin J. Newell, executive director, Alliance for the Unreached

SynopsisChristians are all too familiar with the dichotomy between ""being a Mary"" (sitting at Jesus' feet) and ""being a Martha"" (being active in ministry). We have been told that before we can do, we first need to be. And this is well and good. But it is insufficient. Before we can be, we first need to know. We need to know who God is (God's attributes) so that we can then be who we are intended to be in Christ. Only then should we seek to do what he has called and equipped us to do for his glory. This book focuses on knowing God, in his many attributes, so that we can become conformed to his image, in order to do what he's called us to do to bring the gospel to the world., Christians are all too familiar with the dichotomy between "being a Mary" (sitting at Jesus' feet) and "being a Martha" (being active in ministry).
