Missiological Hermeneutics: Biblical Interpretation for the Global Church (American Society of Missiology Monograph)
"Since 1950, remarkable progress has been made in developing mission theology. Redford aids and abets this development by introducing missiological hermeneutics that will help Christians around the world engage the word of God with greater understanding and faithfulness."--Wilbert R. Shenk, Fuller Graduate School of Intercultural Studies"The Bible is a book about mission, but far too often biblical scholars have not studied it from that perspective. And missionaries have frequently based their actions on only a few favorite texts, ignoring important aspects of the biblical message. This groundbreaking work, which seeks to bridge the gap between biblical interpretation and missiology, will enrich and challenge all who are engaged in mission today."--Paul E Pierson, Fuller Theological Seminary --Wipf and Stock Publishers
