In 1910 Protestant missionaries from around the world gathered
to explore the role of Christian missions in the twentieth century.
In this collection, leading missiologists use the one hundred year
anniversary of the Edinburgh conference as an occasion to reflect
on the practice of Christian mission in today's context: a context
marked by globalization, migration, ecological crisis, and
religiously motivated violence. The contributors explore the
meaning of Christian mission, the contemporary context for mission
work, and new forms in which the church has engaged-and should
engage-in its missionary task. From these essays, a vision of
twenty-first-century mission begins to emerge-one that is aware of
issues of race, gender, border spaces, migration, and ecology. This
renewed vision gives strength to the future of shared Christian
ministry across nations and traditions.
