The Newbigin Gauntlet: Developing a Domestic Missiology for North America

Abstract

The contextual missiology of the North American churches is poorly formed, at best. At the heart of the recent work of Lesslie Newbigin, there lies a challenge to develop a domestic missiology marked by the theological depth he has habitually brought to bear on missiological issues. To do so will require that we acknowledge the fundamentally new social circumstances in which the churches of North America now live, and pursue the answer to three questions in light of those circumstances: How must we grasp our identity? How must we seek the “common good”? And how must we tell the gospel?
