With the publication of Transforming Mission (1991), David Bosch acknowledged the Church’s activity in mission has transitioned through several paradigms. His conclusion at the end of the twentieth century was the new paradigm had not arrived but was in the process of development. We are still in this liminal state.
What is a possible way to navigate this transition and position the Church for future mission? In this podcast, I discuss the apostolic imagination that challenges us to rethink ten aspects of contemporary missions: 1) Language; 2) Purpose; 3) Identity; 4) Function; 5) Strategy; 6) Location; 7) Resources; 8) Sending Structures; 9) Partnerships; and 10) the West.
