GlobalChurch - Reshaping Our Conversations, Renewing Our Mission, Revitalizing Our Churches Summary

GlobalChurch - Reshaping Our Conversations, Renewing Our Mission, Revitalizing Our Churches by Graham Hill

Christianity seems to be in decline in the West. But many churches in Asia, Africa, Latin America and other parts of the Majority World are growing rapidly. Western Christianity can no longer claim to be the center of the global church. Before long, two-thirds of Christians will live in Asia, Africa and Latin America. What does this mean for global Christian mission? What does it mean for worship, theology, faith and evangelism in the West? In GlobalChurch, Graham Hill engages with more than one hundred high-profile Majority World Christian leaders to find out what they can teach the West about mission, leadership, hospitality, creation care, education, worship and more. He challenges the Western church to move away from a Eurocentric and Americentric view of church and mission, and he calls the church to construct global missional conversations. The future of the global church-including the churches of the West-exists in these global exchanges. This resource engages with the work and thought of Majority World theologians and missiologists including
  • Simon Chan
  • Ruth Padilla DeBorst
  • Samuel Escobar
  • Ajith Fernando
  • Makoto Fujimura
  • Gustavo Gutierrez
  • Emmanuel Katongole
  • Nelson Mandela
  • Vishal Mangalwadi
  • C. Rene Padilla
  • Lamin Sanneh
  • Sadhu Sundar Singh
  • Vinoth Ramachandra
  • Amos Yong
GlobalChurch is an indispensible guide for the church as it navigates the unique global experiences of the twenty-first century.
