Reading measures

Suggested reading age
ages 14–17
Ambleside year
Year 9 onwards · ages 14–17

An Ambleside year is a year of the Ambleside Online programme, not a reader's age. Year 0 is its first year, and a book used over several years shows the span. The ages beside it are that band offered two grades up and none down, which is how we offer a band; they are a placement, not a reading measure.

This is more a brief argument than a book, but it is effective at what it aims to do– awaken current and future audiences to the idea that missions is crucial. Just the author's challenge that the very reasons we use that worldwide missions is not feasible are invalidated by what we will do to make a buck in the world market is worth the price of admission. He also gives a very good view of the book of Acts from 20,000 feet in one of his chapters.
