Reviews
"Despite these concerns, Christian Mission is a valuable addition to the growing literature on world Christianity . . . our overall understanding of Christianity as a world religion is significantly increased by Robert's work." (Christian Century, 8 March 2011) "This work is a valuable contribution to the subject." ( CHOICE , December 2009)"Roberts helpfully reminds the readers that this...must be understood by accounting for the various players and settings in which it unfolds: "It is important to study the spiders, but it is equally important to notice the web" (177).Christian Mission, appropriate as a college or graduate level text, is a commendable introduction to those seeking to make sense of this tangled web." (Missology, 2010)"[This book] does a lot of things (including a chronological and thematic study of 2000 years of Christian mission!). Along the way, Robert points out that Christian missionaries have done much good for the societies they have entered." ( The Gospel Coalition , January 2010) "A masterful survey of mission in Christian history from the very origins of the religion to the present. ... It should be required reading for any undergraduate course on Christianity or world religions." ( International Bulletin of Missionary Research , October 2009) "Robert unerringly focuses on the most important issues. She is especially good on the persistence of gender issues in mission history." ( Christian Century , October 2009)

Synopsis
Although stereotyped as an aspect of colonialism, Christian missions brought about massive shifts in the nature of Christianity, which by this century has become a religion largely practiced outside the west. This illuminating book provides a brief history of Christian missions and their relationship to the current globalization of Christianity., The Gospels record that Christ commanded his disciples to go forth and teach all nations. Thus began the history of Christian mission, a phenomenon which brought about massive shifts in the nature and practice of Christianity, and one that many say reflects the single most important movement of intercultural encounter over a sustained period of human history. To understand Christianity as a global movement, therefore, it is essential to study the role of mission defined as the transmission of the Gospel across cultures. Erudite and enlightening, this brief book explores the 2,000 years of mission history, covering topics such as the meaning of the missionary through history, gender and missions, and missions in culture and politics. Given that in the twenty-first century, Christianity is now largely practiced outside the West, Christian Mission is an inspirational and invaluable resource to broaden our understanding of the nature of Christianity as a truly multicultural world religion., Exploring how Christianity became a world religion, this brief history examines Christian missions and their relationship to the current globalization of Christianity. A short and enlightening history of Christian missions: a phenomenon that many say reflects the single most important intercultural movement over a sustained period of human history Offers a thematic overview that takes into account the political, cultural, social, and theological issues Discusses the significance of missions to the globalization of Christianity, and broadens our understanding of Christianity as a multicultural world religion Helps Western audiences understand the meaning of mission as a historical process Contains several new maps that illustrate demographic shifts in world Christianity, CHRISTIAN MISSION "Dana Robert distils a quarter of a century of her research into an erudite and accessible single-volume account of how Christianity became the largest religious tradition in the world. There is no better place for any reader to start becoming informed about this important subject." David Hempton, Harvard University "Remarkable for the range and depth of the material Robert is able to pack into so short a book. Reliable and readable, it is especially valuable for its treatment of the relation between western and non-western missionary activity." David A. Hollinger, University of California, Berkeley "Dana Robert's richly textured book shows us that the history of Christian missions is far from being merely a European colonial story, and will be immensely valuable to students and general readers who are concerned to uncover the historical roots of Christianity's current status as a truly global faith." Brian Stanley, University of Edinburgh The Gospels record that Christ commanded his disciples to "go forth and teach all nations." Thus began the history of Christian mission, a phenomenon which brought about massive shifts in the nature and practice of Christianity, and one that many say reflects the single most important movement of intercultural encounter over a sustained period of human history. To understand Christianity as a global movement, therefore, it is essential to study the role of mission - defined as the transmission of the Gospel across cultures. Erudite and enlightening, this brief book explores the 2,000 years of mission history, covering topics such as the meaning of the missionary through history, gender and missions, and missions in culture and politics. Given that in the twenty-first century, Christianity is now largely practiced outside the West, Christian Mission is an inspirational and invaluable resource to broaden our understanding of the nature of Christianity as a truly multi-cultural world religion.

- a***z (84)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI think the item is good enough and true to description but it was poorly packaged with no protection so I don't know if the large dints and dents in it came from the shipping process or were there at the time of purchase. I think it was overpriced for a second-hand purchase IF the damage was there prior to shipping. I'll do what I can to reverse the damage and I'm glad I've got it. I would urge the seller to properly protect packages in future, a simple envelope simply won't cut it.ESV Battlezone Bible: English Standard Version Metal Case Crossway Bibles (#167467236410)
