Together in Mission: From All Nations to All Nations
Ebook
Overview
Have you ever felt the call of God to go into all the world?
David and Rosemary Harley did, and through simple obedience to that call they were able to have a worldwide impact on the spread of the Gospel. Together in Mission tells their story of leaving the UK to become full-time missionaries in Africa, and via several unexpected events helping to run All Nations College and latterly lead OMF International. Their story is in many ways a remarkable one, but the heart of this book is to inspire anyone and everyone to answer the call of God on their lives and see where it might lead them. It also highlights the continued need for the global Church to work together for the sake of the gospel.
The Harleys (All Nations College & OMF) tell their story to inspire a new generation of international mission.

“The boy who wants to be Archbishop of Canterbury/++ meets the girl who tried to prove that Jesus didn't exist! It's a great beginning for the life story of two people who have kept finding that God's plan for their lives was different from what they imagined. David and Rosemary have lived and worked through dramatic events in Ethiopia, spent years teaching in Britain, ministered in Korea, Nigeria, India, Brazil, Singapore…Their story is a fascinating whirl.”
Revd Professor John Goldingay Professor of Old Testament, Fuller Seminary
“I want to thank David and Rosemary for sharing their missionary life stories in Africa, Asia, and globally. We can feel both the joy and excitement at the opportunities and the disappointments of setbacks in their journey. Yet, this couple persevere, trust God is at work, and see humour in adverse situations. Their heart to equip and train God’s people for God’s global mission runs through the whole book.”
Revd Dr Patrick Fung General Director, OMF International
“I like reading books by Out of the Box people – and David and Rosemary are this kind of people. Books like this are urgently needed. Some say mission as a career is old hat and we are all missionaries. That’s true but we need people like David and Rosemary as much as ever before. Please read the book and let some of this reality impact you.”
George Verwer Founder, Operation Mobilisation
“The Harleys share their journey in mission with honesty,
humility and humour. David and Rosemary are a superb example of a
couple in ministry and disciples together in mission. This
wonderful book brings the reader into the joys, but also the
dangers and frustrations
of cross-cultural life and ministry. There is much wisdom shared in
these pages, with insights on leadership, global mission and what
it means to make the message of the gospel intelligible and
meaningful to those across the street or across the world. I’ll be
encouraging every applicant to OMF, and every mission partner
serving with OMF, to read Together in Mission. I warmly commend
this book and its authors.”
Dr Peter Rowan PhD Co-National Director, OMF (UK)
“David and Rosemary’s friendship and support, welcoming me into
their London home and their teaching and mentoring at All Nations
Christian College, has been life-transforming. Their cross-cultural
adventures in the UK, Africa and Asia, and their impact on the
lives and
ministries of so many others are told with their characteristic
warmth, candour and humour. Their rich insights and practical
experiences as a family committed to living out the Great
Commission are a joy to read and an invaluable guide to God’s
mission today.”
