Abstract:

Mission is first and foremost about God and God’s historical redemptive initiative on behalf of creation. In this regard, the Third Lausanne Congress affirms that the Church is called to witness to Christ today by sharing in God’s mission of love through the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. The World Council of Churches states that ‘all Christians, churches and congregations are called to be vibrant messengers of the gospel of Jesus Christ’. How the Church participates in the mission of God is a question on which one should reflect. This article therefore discusses the mission approaches of Ghanaian Pentecostal churches. The article begins with a description of the Ghanaian mission strategic plan, their spiritual approach to mission, and then proceeds with other approaches in the light of Walls’ ‘five marks of mission’ (i.e. evangelism, discipleship, responding to the social needs of people through love, transforming the unjust structures of society, and safe-guarding the integrity of creation) and Krintzinger’s (and others’) holistic mission approach (i.e. kerygmatic, diaconal, fellowship, and liturgical). This article argues that mission should be approached with a careful strategy.

Abstract:

This article combines elements from the emerging mission paradigm suggested by David J. Bosch in his seminal work, Transforming Mission (1991), with insights into the education of twenty-first century missionaries. The conceptual model developed here sees praxis and poiesis, theological contextualization and spiritual formation, being brought together in listening and responding movements of missions. It is suggested that missionaries will be best prepared for missions in a new century through emphases upon (1) nurture for praxis as they learn to exegete the Word, exegete the world, and bring these together in local theologies, and (2) nurture for poiesis as their worship and witness become expressive craftsmanship and spiritual service within Christian communities.

The book is a commentary on “The Arusha Call to Discipleship,” a twelve-point call to mission that was approved unanimously by the conference participants. This is an ideal book to be discussed by local congregations who want to know the latest thinking about the mission of the church.

Abstract:

While women have been marginalized in societies, by being in mission women have endeavored to remove the marginality of those they serve. Being at once objects and subjects of mission is a peculiar predicament of women in mission. This article examines how women engaged in mission negotiate with the center, namely, patriarchy. They submit to it, circumvent it, challenge it, and transform it. This article seeks to survey women's margin-center relations from the early Roman period to the present, and to explore briefly how the Women's Division of the United Methodist Church has been instrumental in leading the total denomination in the area of racial justice: an instance of margin transforming the center.

Abstract:

Matthew introduces and concludes the ministry of Jesus in Galilee. This article interprets the term “Galilee” to signal a key missiological theme in the Gospel of Matthew, namely that God accepts the rejected ones of the world and commissions them as God's change agents in the world. Galilee, with its open relations to the wider world, portrays the inclusive nature of Jesus' mission and of Matthew's Gospel. Through the term “Galilee,” Matthew transforms marginality from a curse to a blessing and demonstrates that mission from the margins has the potential to transform the world.

Abstract:

Missiological texts typically focus on the church or individuals as the agents of mission (within the missio Dei) and it is rare to find any reference to families or the home. Such an omission, however, overlooks the extent to which families can witness to the transforming grace of God in the midst of the world. In this article, I explore the importance of families for mission, and argue that the New Testament shows that the family is subordinated to the church but also transformed by the kingdom. In the light of the New Testament witness, I explore three scriptural themes of a family spirituality for mission; holiness, hospitality, and service. Given the significance of life within the home, the disciplines of missiology and Christian spirituality need to engage more deeply with the family as a context for Christian formation and outreach.

Abstract:

Peace missions in the modern world are inextricably linked to the political and social processes taking place in specific regions of the globe. When looking closer to the more than fifty-year history of international peacekeeping operations, it should be noted that as time passes, they undergo constant transformations. Their types, goals, and ways of implementation are changing. That is because the environment in which such operations are carried out is changing. They are also transforming the goals and priorities of local and international communities. Permanent modification is also subject to threats in the modern world. Peace missions are conducted under ever-changing social, economic, and political conditions. They must be flexible so that they can adapt to new challenges. Success is never guaranteed because the tasks related to maintaining peace are carried out in challenging conditions. The success of the peace mission depends on many factors, such as the composition of the peacekeeping mission (military personnel, police, civilian employees), logistical support, entrusted tasks and the environment in which the peace mission operates.

Abstract:

This study details the procedure and results of developing a mission statement at a language institute for the purpose of obtaining a program accreditation from an international language commission. A serious self-study process results in the development of a solid, true and ambitious mission since the mission covers all areas related to achieving students learning outcomes. It shows how the mission was changed and why. It also details how the new mission resulted in the improving quality, especially in the areas of curriculum and professional development of faculty and staff. Other aspects, such as facilities and student affairs were modified to achieve the goals and objectives of the new mission. This essay reports the changes that were implemented during the process of mission statement development. These changes resulted in plans to improve the quality of the English language teaching at the English Language Academy (ELA) which offers an English language program to Foundation Year students whose success in the program is a college requirement at the University of Business and Technology (UBT) in the academic year of 2016-2017. The program also aims at improving the English language proficiency of students so that they can use it in their future professions considering that the university logo is “Education for Job Opportunities.” The third main goal or aim is related to the use of English to assist students in personal and social life. Critical thinking surfaced as a main concern of those surveyed for needs assessment. The report concludes with recommending conducting thorough and genuine self-study process which certainly ends with quality improvement. The report uses data collected from five questionnaires completed by students, faculty, alumni and employers of UBT graduates. The purpose of the survey was to identify the needs of the students. Based on those needs, the learning outcomes are identified and accordingly, the new mission statement is developed.

Abstract:

We do not so much see images as see through images, writes theologian John Shea. Taking this insight, this article explores eight images of the missionary and through them comes to an understanding of mission itself. Images explored are those of (1) treasure hunter, (2) teacher, (3) prophet, (4) guest, (5) stranger, (6) partner, (7) migrant worker, and (8) ghost. Mission is understood not as a mere communication of a content, but as an invitation to search for what is already hidden in a culture. It has the courage to preach God's good, though sometimes challenging, news in season and out of season. It works through the gratefulness of a guest, the challenge of the stranger, the encouragement of the equal partner. It is concerned not with rights and prestige and recognition, but with the good of human beings. Ultimately, mission prolongs God's incarnation by continuing to make visible God's consoling and transforming love.

The ‘Road Map’ must consist of the following four stages: Assessment, Vision, Project Plan and Metrics.

Abstract:

A reconstruction of missiology, in the Latin American context, is due to inter-religious dialogue; new paradigms; and theologies of mestizo, indigenes, and black peoples. The Spirit is renewing and transforming each community, culture, and religion for the sake of a joyful humanity in the Earth, where the Spirit creates life. In this sense, missiology goes beyond colonial and neo-colonial structures so that once more we may accept the good news of liberation.

Abstract:

Founded in 1930 as the “house library” of a Jesuit seminary, the Regis College Library collection presents evidence of almost 400 years of Jesuit participation in the socio-cultural development of present-day Canada. Today, the Regis Library contributes to the University of Toronto Library system, the third largest aggregated research university collection in North America. The provenance of the collection offers a vantage on the cultural encounter between European Jesuits and indigenous peoples. The palimpsest of spine markings and other collection metadata signals the replacement of encyclopedic approaches to knowledge and subject mapping with a more empirical approach to book classification based on actual patterns of collection and use. A recent pilot research project extends this empirical approach by applying advanced analytic algorithms to digitized text collections. Readers are invited to reflect on the socio-political power differences introduced by book classification and challenged by access to sophisticated computational tools.

Full text

Abstract:

How can autonomous technology be used beyond end-customer autonomous driving features? This position paper addresses this problem by exploring a novel autonomous transport solution applied in the automotive logistics domain. We propose that factory-complete cars can be transformed to become their own autonomous guided vehicles and thus transport themselves when being moved from the factory for shipment. Cars equipped with such a system are driverless and use an onboard autonomous transport solution combined with the advanced driver assistance systems pre-installed in the car for end-customer use. The solution uses factory-equipped sensors as well as the connectivity infrastructure installed in the car. This means that the solution does not require any extra components to enable the car to transport itself autonomously to complete a transport mission in the logistics chain. The solution also includes an intelligent off-board traffic control system that defines the transport mission and manages the interaction between vehicles during systems operation. A prototype of the system has been developed which was tested successfully in live trials at the Volvo Car Group plant in Gothenburg Sweden in 2017. In the paper, autonomous transport is positioned in between autonomous guided vehicles and autonomous driving technology. A review of the literature on autonomous vehicle technology offers contextual background to this positioning. The paper also presents the solution and displays lessons learned from the live trials. Finally, other use areas are introduced for driverless autonomous transport beyond the automotive logistics domain that is the focus of this paper.

Abstract:

For those who are connected digitally, the digital health revolution is an enormous opportunity for patient empowerment. However, half the world’s population are not online. Those who are least likely to be online are exactly those who experience the greatest burden of ill health. As information about health and illness is increasingly (and often exclusively) available in digital form, we face a new public health challenge – digital health inequality. Libraries are ideally placed to reach these population groups who may be hardest to reach. The IFLA (2017) Statement on Digital Literacy recognises that with libraries’ mission to help all their users access and apply the information they need for personal and community development, digital inclusion is an important part of the practice of librarianship. Successful interventions to improve digital inclusion involve targeting connecting, and transforming lives. This article focuses on initiatives to combat digital exclusion in England and Wales.

Abstract:

In the new context of mission, all have bread to give and to receive. Mission becomes a “mutual exchange of energies” ( AG:19) among churches and groups. The growth of missionary consciousness in the “Third Church” is outlined, and the possible contribution of this church, particularly the church of Africa, is detailed. For the first time in centuries, the gospel is being transmitted without its Western cultural embodiment, making more urgent the demand that the church become truly catholic, identified with no particular culture. The heart of mission is shown to be a humble and transforming dialogue of experiences of God and the Christ.

Abstract This article aims to develop a theology of mission in the context of refugees and asylum seekers, using the Australian situation as an illustration. It suggests that hospitality is the most appropriate approach to such a theology of mission. Ten dimensions of hospitality are explored: defense of human rights, political action, settlement assistance, sanctuary, being welcoming multicultural churches, intercultural learning, interfaith dialogue, awareness of the ethics of welcome, meals and personal friendship, and openness to a transforming divine presence.

Abstract:

The University of the Sunshine Coast (USC) opened in 1996 and since 1999 held the full university status as well as being the first ‘Greenfield’ university to open in Australia since 1971 (https://my.usc.edu.au/). This status was in line with its mission to become an institution with strong emphasis on sustainability and environmentally friendly regional development while transforming a former cane farm into today’s multi award-winning modern and distinctive sub-tropical architectural structure. Over the past 20 years the university has played a role as an ‘urban catalyst’ in one of the rapidly growing and transforming regions of Australia with a foundational mission statement: ‘To be the major catalyst for the academic cultural and economic advancement of the region: by leadership; by pursuit of international standards in teaching and research; and by responsiveness to the needs of students, staff, community and the environment’.

Abstract:

Mission and theology are intimately related. This might not have seemed so obvious in the nineteenth century when practical considerations were paramount, but it was growing clearer in the twentieth as complex interactions among denominations and with other world religions required more careful reflection. David Bosch duly notes the trend, calling it “Mission as Theology,” the twelfth element of “An Emerging Ecumenical Missionary Paradigm” ( Transforming Mission, 489–498). The question is whether this trend has found its fulfillment. A certain narrowness of vision persists in missiological conversations, which risks neglecting mission-worthy insights from theologians and exegetes outside the field strictly defined. Unless theologians identify themselves publicly as missiologists or their subject matter as missiologically related, they risk not being noticed by the missiological community. Two examples of this will be noted in this article: systematic theologian Gerhard Forde who rarely talks overtly of mission but makes a passionate contribution towards its effective practice; and New Testament professor Roy Harrisville of modest experience in overseas mission who probes a worldview-rupturing effect of Christ pertinent to any interfaith dialogue. The need for a mechanism for the fulfillment of the trend Bosch noted will be argued, and some possibilities proposed.

Abstract:

AbstractLike Bernard, Bulgarian academic and missionary Parush Parushev names some of the way forward for missionary engagement in contemporary Europe, particularly in those countries formerly dominated by the Soviet Union. Parushev argues that the integrity of Christian mission is ensured by a holistic approach which witnesses to God's transforming presence in one's life, in pastoral assistance for the down and out, and, in enduring social commitment to challenging, and redeeming those aspects of societal life not in harmony with gospel values.

Abstract:

To accomplish its mission, the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN, Switzerland) is committed to the continuous development of its personnel through a systematic and sustained learning culture, that aims at keeping the knowledge and competences of the personnel in line with the evolving needs of the organisation. With this goal in mind, CERN supports learning in its broadest sense and promotes a variety of learning methods. Over the last few years, CERN has focused its efforts on expanding the learning opportunities of its personnel via newly available software and e-learning tools and methodologies, thereby bringing a shift in the learning culture of the organisation. In September 2018, CERN launched a new Learning Management System centralising all learning opportunities in a single platform, the CERN Learning Hub. In addition, new e-learning resources are now widely available to the personnel, including customised internally created e-learnings, an e-library, a commercial e-learning platform for self-paced learning and online surveys (180 feedback tools for CERN managers and leaders). This paper presents the experience gained by CERN in testing and adopting these new e-learning technologies and discusses the future vision for CERN.

Abstract:

Dynamically transforming mission contexts in conjunction with ever-increasing budgetary constraints provides great impetus for the Department of Defense (DoD) to identify resilient systems early in the design process. The engineered resilient systems (ERS) community of interest (COI) research efforts focus on identifying and quantifying methods to perform systems engineering analysis in a model-based physics-driven environment. Research conducted has approached resiliency from various perspectives, including inherent resilience, mission and platform resilience, and value-driven resilient tradespace. This article examines resilience in an ERS context and presents multiple perspectives of resilience for consideration when developing modeling and simulation platforms to support analysis of systems under acquisition consideration.

Abstract:

AbstractWritten by one of David Bosch's long-time colleagues, this paper provides an informal, yet important personal view into the life and work of David Bosch, revealing not only an internationally recognized missiologist, but also a man whose everyday life was intimately connected to his missiology. His was a life formed by missiology, yet his missiology also characterised his life. Key events in Bosch's life are related personally, including his early missionary experience in the Transkei, his role in the formation of the Southern African Missiological Society and its journal Missionalia, the worldwide impact of his magnum opus, Transforming Mission, and the devastation many experienced by his death in 1992. Bosch's focion ecumenical missiology, “alternative community”, and pacifism are explored alongside his commitment to, and tension with, the Dutch Reformed Church in South Africa. The paper concludes by lauding one of Bosch's greatest missiological contributions: his liberation of the definition of mission, moving away from “mission is…” and toward “mission as…” or, “mission in many modes”. Ecrit par l'un des collègues de longue date de David Bosch, cet article offre un point de vue personnel informel mais important sur la vie et l'œuvre de David Bosch, révélant non seulement un missiologue reconnu internationalement, mais aussi un homme dont la vie quotidienne était intimement liée à sa missiologie. On y découvre un récit personnel d'événements clefs de la vie de David Bosch, y compris les début de son expérience missionnaire au Transkei, son rôle dans la formation de l'Association sud-africaine de missiologie et sa revue Missionalia, l'impact mondial de son magnum opus, Transforming Mission et l'accablement de nombreuses personnes lors de sa mort, en 1992. L'auteur explore l'accent mis par Bosch sur la missiologie œcuménique, « la communauté alternative » et le pacifisme ainsi que son engagement dans l'Eglise réformée de Hollande en Afrique du Sud de même que ses tensions avec elle. L'article se termine par l'éloge de l'une des contributions missiologiques majeures de David Bosch qui a libéré la définition de la mission en allant de « la mission c'est » à « la mission comme… » ou « la mission de multiples manières ». Dieser Beitrag, geschrieben von einem langjährigen Kollegen von David Bosch, liefert eine informelle, aber trotzdem wichtige persönliche Sicht auf das Leben und das Werk David Boschs. Sie zeigt nicht nur einen international anerkannten Missiologen, sondern auch einen Mann, dessen Alltagsleben zutiefst mit seiner Missiologie verbunden war. Sein Leben war von der Missiologie bestimmt, aber seine Missiologie charakterisierte auch sein Leben. Saayman berichtet in persönlicher Form von Schlüsselereignissen im Leben Boschs, seine frühe Missionserfahrung in Transkei, seine Rolle im Aufbau der südafrikanischen missiologischen Gesellschaft und ihre Zeitschrift Missionalia eingeschlossen, der weltweite Erfolg seines opus magnum, Transforming Mission, und der Schock, den sein Tod 1992 für viele bedeutete. Der Artikel untersucht auch die zentralen emen Boschs wie ökumenische Missiologie, ,,Kontrastgesellschaft“ und Pazifismus zusammen mit seiner Bindung und Spannung mit der Holländischen Reformierten Kirche in Südafrika. Der Artikel schließt mit einer Lobeshymne auf eine von Boschs größten missiologischen Beiträgen: Seine Befreiung der Definition von Mission, die weggeht von ,,Mission ist…“ zu einem ,,Mission als…“ oder ,,Mission auf vielfältige Weisen“. Este trabajo, escrito por un antiguo colega de David Bosch, presenta una visión informal pero a la vez importante, sobre la vida y obra de David Bosch. Lo muestra no sólo como un misiólogo internacionalmente reconocido, sino también como un hombre cuya vida diaria estaba íntimamente ligada a su misiología. Su vida fue formada por la misiología, pero su misiología también definió su vida. El autor relata en forma personal ciertos acontecimientos importantes de la vida de Bosch tales como los comienzos de su experiencia misionera en Transkei, su papel en la formación del la Sociedad Misiológica de Sudáfrica y la revista Missionalia, el impacto mundial de su obra magna, La transformación de la misión, y la pérdida experimentada por su muerte en 1992. Se examina el énfasis de Bosch sobre la misiología ecuménica, una “comunidad alternativa”, y el pacifismo junto a su compromiso, y la tensión con la Iglesia Reformada holandesa en Sudáfrica. El documento concluye elogiando una de las mayores contribuciones de Bosch a la misiología: el liberarse de la definición de misión o sea, se aleja de “la misión es…” y se acerca a “la misión como…” o, “la misión en muchas maneras.”
