Mission in Context: Explorations Inspired by J. Andrew Kirk

Editat de John Corrie, Cathy Ross
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 dec 2011
Stimulated by Andrew Kirk's mission theology, this book brings fresh theological reflection to a wide range of mission issues. A formidable group of international missiologists are drawn together to explore current reflections on a wide range of issues including: poverty and injustice, environmentalism, secularism, the place of scripture in a pluralist culture, science and faith, liberation theology, oppression and reconciliation, and much more. Kirk's influence and reputation is international, and extends to South America, USA, Eastern Europe, Africa and SE Asia. Latin American mission has been especially enriched by Kirk's innovative thinking on revolutionary politics, contextualisation and holistic mission. This is an indispensable resource of up-to-date missiological reflections for all involved in mission at every level.

Recenzii

'Andrew Kirk has through his own life and scholarship in mission studies embodied a union of evangelical faithfulness, passionate regard for social justice, and deep theological reflection. This union - sadly all too rare in the field - is exemplified by this rich collection of essays in his honour.' Brian Stanley, University of Edinburgh, UK 'The richness, freshness, and depth of the essays in this book provide a fine tribute to J. Andrew Kirk as one of the most significant missiologists of our time. This collection will enrich any library - academic or personal.' Steve Bevans, Catholic Theological Union, Chicago, USA 'This, then, is a volume that not only pays tribute to Andrew Kirk but also provides a set of up-to-date missiological, especially contextual, reflections generated by his writings. The editors’ conclusion that Kirk’s thinking has always been profound, biblical, radical, and often challenging and provocative to orthodox evangelical assumptions is certainly reflected in the range and depth of the essays.' Stimulus: The New Zealand Journal of Christian Thought and Practice 'I found this an extremely stimulating and refreshing book, even though I knew little of Kirk’s work previously. All the essays were informative, as well as challenging, and I found much to inspire me in local mission... I would recommend this book to students and ministers alike  it would sit productively alongside Bosch’s seminal work Transforming Mission.' Regent’s Review 'This volume is a very welcome contribution to a number of discussions related to somewhat recent missionary theology and the various developments therein. The contributors have been significant voices, along with Kirk, in important conversations surrounding the church's mission in the world today.' The Gospel Coalition ’The extent to which each of the contributors to this stimulating volume demonstrates how one or another of Kirk’s intellec­tual or vocational interests eventually
