"David Bosch's Transforming Mission, now available in over a dozen languages, is widely recognized as an historic and magisterial contribution to the study of mission. Examining the entire sweep of Christian tradition, he shows how five paradigms have historically encapsulated the Christian understanding of mission and then outlines the characteristics of an emerging postmodern paradigm dialectically linking the transcendent and imminent dimensions of salvation. In this new anniversary edition, Darrel Guder and Martin Reppenhagen explore the impact of Bosch s work and the unfolding application of his seminal vision." --

Colonial missionaries, both Catholic and Protestant, arrived in India with the grandiose vision of converting the pagans because, like St. Peter (Acts 4:12) and most of the church fathers, they honestly believed that there is no salvation outside the church (extra ecclesiam nulla salus). At the end of the "great Protestant century," however, Christians made up less than 3 percent of the population in India, and the hope of the missionary was nearly shattered. But if one looks at mission in India qualitatively rather than quantitatively, one sees a number of positive outcomes. Missionaries in India, particularly Protestant missionaries espousing the social gospel, in collaboration with a few British evangelical administrators, dared to challenge numerous social evils and even began to eradicate them. The scientific and liberal English education began to enlighten and transform the Indian mindset. Converts belonging to the upper caste, although small in number, laid the foundation stone of Indian theology and an inculturated church using Indian genius. The end of colonialism in India coincided with the painful death of colonial mission theology. Now, the power of the Word of God, extricated from political power, is slowly and peacefully gaining ground, like the mustard seed of the parable. A paradigm shift from the ecclesio-centric mission to missio Dei offers reason for further optimism. In short, the future of mission in India is as bright as the kingdom of God. In today's new context, theologians, despite objections from some quarters, are struggling to discover the Asian face of Jesus, disfigured by the Greco-Roman Church. And the missionary is challenged to become a living Bible that, undoubtedly, everyone will read.

The Gospel Mission Movement (1892 - 1910) branched out of the North China Mission of the Southern Baptist Convention's (SBC) Foreign Mission Board (FMB) to try bold new things. Their innovations have been lost to most Southern Baptists because of the tendency historians have had to associate them with the Landmark movement that threatened the SBC's existence earlier that century. While there is indeed some overlap of emphases, it is now apparent that there's more to the story. The rest of the story sheds light on the Board's continuing missiological sojourn, even as it engages a new millennium. Gospel Missioners held together around three core values; indigeneity, incarnation, and responsible autonomy. These were not innovative in and of themselves, but woven together in the tapestry of a mission philosophy at the turn of last century constituted a prelude to an evangelical version of what David Bosch would term a postmodern missiology. Traces of their direct influence are evident from the time of survivors reentering the FMB's service to about 1945. Their core values have always been part of the Board's ongoing discovery process, but they were reintegrated in the formation of Cooperative Services International (CSI) in 1985. Yet, the FMB reconfigured itself in 1997 with hopes of being poised for effectively engaging the future and CSI was dissolved. This study investigates the evidence for a more favourable perspective on the Gospel Mission Movement as a set of pioneers that held to missiological values that were likely a century ahead of their own time. It interprets the recent reconfiguration of the Board in light of these historical patterns. Book jacket.
