God at Work in the World – Theology and Mission in the Global Church
Baker Academic, Div of Baker Publishing Group (Verlag)
978-1-5409-6136-5 (ISBN)
A leading scholar offers an up-to-date articulation of the theological grounding of the missionary endeavor. Lalsangkima (Kima) Pachuau argues that theology of mission deals with God's work in and for the world, which is centered on salvation in Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. Pachuau brings a global perspective to mission theology, explains how theology of mission is related to theology as a discipline, and recognizes recent critiques of "missions," offering a compelling response rooted in the very nature of God.
Lalsangkima Pachuau (PhD, Princeton Theological Seminary) is the John Wesley Beeson Professor of Christian Mission and the dean of Advanced Research Programs at Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. He is also a member of the Center of Theological Inquiry. He previously taught at the United Theological College in Bangalore, India.
