Advanced Missiology, Paperback / softback Book

Advanced Missiology Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Advanced Missiology draws the connections between the theory and practice of missions.

Using the metaphor of a river, the book shows how theories ""upstream"" such as theology, education, anthropology, community development, and history have exerted an influence on missiology (and missiology, in turn, has gone back upstream to influence those disciplines).

What causes these disciplines to converge in missiology is the goal of making disciples across cultures.

Whereas missiologists are not always explicit about how their abstract theories actually relate to the task of making disciples across cultures, each chapter in Advanced Missiology shows how numerous theories, sub-fields, models, and strategies of missiology ultimately facilitate the Great Commission.

The book argues that by using interdisciplinarity for this fundamental purpose, missiological studies will be more credible and useful.
