The Edinburgh 1910 World Missionary Conference was the most famous
missions conference in modern church history. A century later, five
conferences on five continents displayed the landscape of global
mission at the dawn of the third millennium: Tokyo 2010, Edinburgh
2010, Cape Town 2010, 2010Boston, and CLADE V (San Jose, 2012).
These five events provide a window into the state of world
Christianity and contemporary missiology. Missiologist Allen Yeh,
the only person to attend all five conferences, chronicles the
recent history of world mission through the lenses of these
landmark events. He assesses the legacy of Edinburgh 1910 and the
development of world Christianity in the following century. Whereas
Edinburgh 1910 symbolized Christendom's mission "from the West to
the rest," the conferences of 2010-12 demonstrate the new realities
of polycentric and polydirectional mission-from everyone to
everywhere. Yeh's accounts of the conferences highlight the crucial
missiological issues of our era: evangelism, frontier missions,
ecumenism, unengaged and post-Christian populations,
reconciliation, postmodernities, contextualization,
postcolonialism, migration, and more. What emerges is a portrait of
a contemporary global Christian mission that encompasses every
continent, embodying good news for all nations.
