Description:David Bosch (1929-1992) was one of the foremost mission theologians of the twentieth century; a prolific scholar, committed church leader and active participant in the global conciliar and evangelical mission movements. His distinctive role in the South African church s struggle against apartheid is less well known, however. After reviewing Bosch s background and exploring key themes in his understanding of mission and evangelism, Livingston explores Bosch s legacy from the perspective of the missionary nature of the church. The church is God s kingdom community, acting as a witness to and instrument of the coming reign of God. The church is God s alternative community, simultaneously set apart from the world but also existing for the sake of the world, exemplifying the radical implications of Christ s new community. It is also God s reconciled and reconciling community, serving as a sign and embodiment of God s love in Christ. For those acquainted with Bosch only as the author of his magisterial Transforming Mission, A Missiology of the Road shows how Bosch integrated his theology and practice in a faithful, contextually relevant way within South Africa and the global church."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
