How should today's Church shape its response to the Gospel? How can
we set about 'making disciples of all nations' in our
post-Christian, multi-faith world? What does 'mission' mean in our
times? Here, at last, is a book which addresses these issues - and
many more - with honesty and openness. It strips 'mission' of its
old associations with colonialism and militarism. It looks anew at
the underlying theology, reminding us that our task is God's
mission, not a human construct. It explores key aspects of
contemporary mission, from the familiar - such as the relation of
mission to evangelism, and to people of others faiths - to the
unusual and thought-provoking - such as mission and the
environment, justice for the poor, and the overcoming of violence.
J. Andrew Kirk, who has written and lectured widely on the subject
of mission, also reflects on the importance of partnership and
community - of mission as a shared enterprise. He brings the fruits
of his own broad experience, along with current academic thinking
in missiology, and presents this afresh for a wide readership.
Brief exercises at the end of each chapter draw the reader
personally into the issues covered. Students of mission and
Christians who wish to engage with today's world, to integrate
faith and life, will find here an inclusive, comprehensive and
lucid presentation of all relevant discussions.
