At the same time, reformers were calling for a return to early Christian belief and practice in Europe. The twin processes of globalization and reformation characterized ensuing centuries of Christian development, as increasingly diverse European Christians sought to spread their faith to newly encountered people and continents.

Whether you are a church pastor, missionary, parachurch leader or counselor, everyone (maybe even you) thinks that your spiritual and emotional energy should always be brimming over. Moreover, if it is not, and it is usually not, we think something is wrong with us.
