You have a calling, but you also have a "sending."


A calling is a familiar idea. People search for their true calling, hoping to find what they were made to do, eager to fulfill their life's purpose. Let God Send reminds us that regardless of our individual vocation, we are always sent people, propelled by God's Spirit into the world to serve others. This sent-ness comes from the very nature of God who is always on the move in our world. Jesus was sent. The Holy Spirit is sent. Abraham and Moses were sent. The first disciples became sent-ones as well.


The journeyers in the biblical narrative show us that when God sends, the path is never clear or direct. Being sent can be daunting, disconcerting, and disorienting. We can feel under-qualified, under-educated, or unprepared. But none of our hesitancy changes the reality that a life of following Jesus is a life of being sent out.


Using strong biblical narratives and questions for reflection or group discussion, Matt Brough guides us into an examination of what holds us back from making a move, how to go in a humble and listening way, and ultimately what each disciple of Jesus is called to do in our going. Let God Send is a straightforward, plainspoken plea for people who follow Jesus to get moving.

Industry Reviews

Matt Brough's delightful book, Let God Send offers a biblically sound approach to God's call and our response in discipleship and ministry in the world. Filled with personal anecdotes, reflections on ministry, and practical theology, this book will prove helpful to all who seek their life's calling.-Grace Ji-Sun Kim, professor of theology at Earlham School of Theology and author of several books, most recently, Hope in Disarray and Embracing the Other.


Sending and being sent are significant and frequent themes in Scripture. Tracing the life of Abraham, Gideon, the disciples of Jesus, and other biblical figures, Matt reminds us that God's call still extends to us today. Equipped with authority and the promise of God's presence, being sent is not just what we do; it's also who we are. This book offers clarity, challenge, encouragement, and - maybe best of all - the permission to accept God's divine call on our lives to go.-J.R. Briggs, Author of The Sacred Overlap, Founder of Kairos Partnerships


Brough will guide you through the invitation every one of us has to join God's work in the world. God sends and commissions us all and gives us authority in the name of Jesus no matter who we are, what we've done, or what has been done to us. Let God Send is the perfect companion for those who are ready to cross whatever boundaries are necessary to make a move led by God's Spirit.-Stephanie Williams O'Brien, Author of Stay Curious and Make a Move


Matt Brough reminds us that one cannot be a disciple of Jesus without embracing becoming an apostle as well. Christendom tried to push apostleship to the rear view. Brough, in Let God Send, is an essential voice in helping us all to bring it back to the front.-Nick Warnes, Executive Director of Cyclical Inc. and co-author of Starting Missional Churches


"In an era of confusion and chaos such as we now find ourselves, voices like Matt Brough are needed more than ever. He is committed to fostering incisive conversations on spirituality that are accessible to almost anyone. You should listen to what he has to say."-Jonathan Merritt, contributing writer for The Atlantic and author of Learning to Speak God from Scratch


Pastor and Church Planter Matthew Brough once again provides thoughtful and engaging work to help us discover anew God's call upon both our lives and this beloved, yet broken world. Brough offers us hope that in our "sentness" we are not left on our own, but rather we participate and are transformed by what Jesus is doing in our midst - reconciling, redeeming and restoring life in all its abundance. You will put this book down ready and eager for your next assignment from God.-Ross Lockhart, Dean of St. Andrew's Hall, Vancouver
