Global Missiology for the 21st Centruy Part 1/4
Subtitle
The Iguassu Dialogue
Subject
Global Missiology
Abstract
This book emerged from the Iguassu Missiological Consultation, held in Brazil in October 1999. With 41 writers from around the world contributing articles, the book presents a sample of Evangelical and global missiological reflection. The major categories of discussion are establishing the global arena, setting the macro context and raising major issues, grounding trinitarian missiological reflections in Scripture, addressing issues of globalized Evangelical missiology, responding to major challenges, listening to mission that rises from community and spirituality, and engaging the commitments flowing from the Iguassu Affirmation, the missiological statement summarizing the issues of the Iguassu Consultation. The publication speaks to the need to come together as equals and dialogue "around the table," thus allowing Evangelical missiology to be shaped by the interaction of diverse viewpoints and cultural realities in the 21st century.
