This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. This comprehensive introduction examines the place, significance, and scope of the practice of missiology, its biblical foundations, motives, goals, and methods. Particular consideration is given to Asian, African, and Latin American missions, and to the church's mission to the Jews.
Herman Ridderbos
"Contemporary Missiology is a book of high quality. . . A standard work of abundant information, critical insight, biblical foundation, and ecumenical latitude."
The Living Church
"With incredible detail, the author covers a wide range of crucial topics: biblical theology for and strategy of mission; a historical summary of the major activities and personalities of Christian missions; past and present goals for missions; modern mission strategy in the light of present day cultures, developing nations, and indigenous theories; and the ecumenical aspects of missionary activity in today's world. . . . Contemporary Missiology is a book which deserves serious use."
Journal of Psychology and Theology
"Destined to become one of the great classics in the literature of missiology; it is a very big book in every sense of the term."
Catholic Library World
"This book is surely to be one of the most significant ever written on the subject."
