dc.description.abstract | This study is situated within the discipline of missiology and seeks to contribute to missional
theology as one important contemporary school of thought within the discipline. Missional
theology emerged in the 1990s especially within the Anglophone contexts of the United
Kingdom (UK) and the United States of America (USA). Most forms of missional theology build
on the insights of Lesslie Newbigin, who in several books, reflected from his cross-cultural
missionary experience on the challenges of the gospel to churches within his own cultural
context in the UK. Such insights were quickly adopted in the North American context and was
further explored by the Gospel and Our Cultural Network which emphasised the local-churchin-mission. Local congregations where missional theology flourished rediscovered that the
fundamental reasons for the church’s existence involves an engagement within local
communities. | en_US |
