Futurists say that the changes that have occurred in the past 100 years are equivalent to the changes that the whole of human history has experienced, and the changes that will occur in the coming 20 years will be at the same rate of change that has occurred in the past 100 years. We are living in a rapidly changing world. The rapid changes surrounding us make us aware that the world in which we live is a global village through the development of technology, communication, transportation, and immigration. In this context, the Word of God does not change, but the environment that the Word is to be preached is constantly changing. The new world requires us to have a new understanding of mission and be equipped with new mission strategies. Mission today has become a multi-ethnic enterprise, from everywhere to everywhere. Globalization has had a great impact on the strategy of world mission. The Church has the responsibility of proclaiming the unchanging Word of God to a changing world. To do this, we must not only have a correct understanding of the message of God, but also a wider perspective of the changing world in which His Words will be proclaimed.
