Christianity Encountering World Religions : The Practice of Mission in the Twenty-first Century
Outline: Given the unique religious climate of the twenty-first century and the challenges to Christian mission it poses, Christianity Encountering World Religions proposes a new model for interacting with people of other faiths. The authors term this model "giftive mission," since it is based on the metaphor of free gift. They suggest that seeing mission activity as giving the greatest gift possible - the gospel message - not only has the potential for greater missionary success but also enables us to imitate more closely God's gracious activity in the world.
