Transforming Mission: Paradigm Shifts in Theology of Mission (Hardcover)

Seldom does one come across a truly magisterial book. Transforming Mission, through, is such a one. Bosch examines the entire sweep of Christian tradition to show historically how five paradigms have encapsulated the Christian understanding of how God saves and what human beings should do in response. With the considerable talents that make him the foremost theologian of Christian vocation and mission today, Bosch then outlines the key characteristics of an emerging “postmodern” paradigm dialectically linking salvation’s transcendent and immanent dimension.
