Transforming Mission: Paradigm Shifts in Theology of Mission – David Bosch

Description

David Bosch’s Transforming Mission, now available in over a dozen languages, is widely recognized as an historic and magisterial contribution to the study of mission. Examining the entire sweep of Christian tradition, he shows how five paradigms have historically encapsulated the Christian understanding of mission and then outlines the characteristics of an emerging “postmodern” paradigm dialectically linking the transcendent and imminent dimensions of salvation.
