Globalizing Theology: Belief and Practice in an Era of World Christianity
"Some of the sharpest minds in the church have been gathered to  discuss some of the most sensitive issues facing the church today. The  result is an extremely helpful guide. A fitting tribute indeed to Paul G.  Hiebert, the great Christian statesman this book honors."--Ajith Fernando,  national director, Youth for Christ, Sri Lanka"I hope this important  volume is widely--and carefully--studied. It addresses a crucial need for  the contemporary Christian movement: a globalized theology for a globalized  church. The writers take us to new levels of exploration of what the gospel  of Jesus Christ means for the multicultural, multiethnic, multinational  community of the Lamb."--Richard J. Mouw, president and professor of  Christian philosophy, Fuller Theological Seminary"This is a truly  exciting book for missiologists and a challenge for theologians of all  sorts--pastors, teachers, or students. It is full of fresh thinking that is  worthy of the mind and spirit of Paul Hiebert, in whose honor these essays  were written."--Stephen B. Bevans, SVD, Louis J. Luzbatek, SVD, Professor  of Mission and Culture, Catholic Theological Union"What a privilege it  is to be living in an era when God's promise to Abraham, that he would  bring blessing to all peoples and nations, is being so remarkably fulfilled  in the phenomenal growth of the global church. And for such a time as  this--the global church engaged in global mission among all cultures--we  need the kind of global thinking that fills this book. These are rich  resources for that urgent task."--Christopher J. H. Wright, international  director, Langham Partnership International
