Introduction -- Following the Spirit -- Mapping -- Exegeting culture -- Building relationships -- Identifying persons of peace -- Engaging tribes -- Contextualization -- Pursuing alternative paths -- Protecting indigeneity -- Final thoughts.
The Western Church world is abuzz with talk of being missional. Church leaders, conference speakers, and authors are weighing the merits of the attractional church movement of the past few decades, and where they find it lacking, prescribing changes in the way we need to approach our cultures with the Gospel. There has been a consensus shift among many churches, networks, and denominations to become more focused on mission. The result is a renewed interest in reaching the lost in our cities and around the world. The Church, in many places in the Western world, is in fact returning to a biblical missional focus.
