Communicating the Gospel--To All People, By All Means

Communication has always been the heartbeat of God's interaction with humankind, and without thoughtful communication, mission is not fully effective. With the rise of technology and social media, the church faces a unique set of opportunities. At the same time, our shrinking world presents challenges and requires an increased sensitivity to social, cultural, and geopolitical triggers. With case studies that span the globe from Australia and Asia to the Black church and Muslim youth diaspora in the United States, this book closely considers what is working in the twenty-first century and what isn't. From post-colonial contexts to creative-access countries, this collection doesn't shy away from today's complex issues. Communication in Mission pulls together diverse voices--some seem like shouts and others like gentle whispers--but each has an important contribution for all who will listen and learn.
