Book The History and Records of the Conference

Download or read book The History and Records of the Conference written by World Missionary Conference and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History and Records of the Conference: Together With Addresses Delivered at the Evening Meetings The significance of the World Missionary Conference will be set in a clearer light by a brief retrospect of previous Conferences of an interdenominational character convened to discuss foreign missions. They originated apparently in the year 1854. The first was occasioned by the visit of Dr. Alexander Duff to America, and was held on 4th and 5th May in the hall of Dr. Alexander's Church in New York. It was attended by 150 members, including eleven missionaries and eighteen officers of various Missionary Societies and Boards. Besides the scriptural basis of missions, three questions of missionary policy were discussed: the question of concentrating or scattering labourers, the question of different Boards planting stations on the same ground, and the question of multiplying and preparing labourers. The second Conference was held in London on 12th and 13th October of the same year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Power and Partnership written by Jonathan S. Barnes and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the concept of partnership between churches in the Global North and South has been an ecumenical goal for well over eight decades, realizing relationships of mutuality, solidarity, and koinonia has been, to say the least, problematic. Seeking to understand the dynamics of power and control in these relationships, this work traces the history of how partnership has been lived out, both as a concept and in practice. It is argued that many of the issues that are problematic for partnerships today can find their antecedents during colonial times at the very beginnings of the modern missionary movement. For those interested in pursuing cross-cultural partnerships today, understanding this history and recognizing the use, as well as the misuse, of power is crucial as we seek genuine relationships of care and friendship in our fractured and divided world.

Book The Missionary Movement from the West

Download or read book The Missionary Movement from the West written by Andrew F. Walls and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-26 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long-awaited culmination of scholarship by a pioneer of missiology and global Christianity The history of the missions is complex and fraught. Though modern missions began with European colonialism, the outcome was a largely non-Western global Christianity. Highly esteemed scholar Andrew Walls explores every facet of the movement, including its history, theory, and future. Walls locates the birth of the Protestant missionary movement in the West with the Puritans and Pietists and their efforts to convert the Native Americans they displaced. Tracing the movement into the twentieth century, Walls shows how colonialism and missionary work turned out to be essentially incompatible. Missionaries must live on another culture’s terms, and their goal—the establishment of churches of every nation—depends on accepting new, indigenous Christians as equals. Now that Christianity has become primarily an African, Latin American, and Asian religion rather than a European one, the dynamics of the church’s mission have transformed. Sensitive to this shift, Walls indicates new areas of listening to and learning from this new center of Christianity and speculates on the theological contributions from a truly global church. Throughout his long and fruitful career, Walls told the story of missions as a dedicated Christian scholar, teacher, and mentor. Prior to his passing in 2021, he entrusted the editing of his lectures to his friends and students. The result of this labor of love, The Missionary Movement from the West is a must-read for scholars of missiology, world Christianity, and church history.
