Studies in Missional Hermeneutics, Theology, and Praxis - Bogserien

Studies in Missional Hermeneutics, Theology, and Praxis

The volumes in this series explore the significance of the so-called "missional turn" for Christian hermeneutics, theological reflection, and praxis. This entails both a critical reconstruction of mission in more holistic and decolonizing terms, as well as the ways in which this renewed conception of mission reorients biblical interpretation, theological reflection, and Christian praxis. In so doing, the series seeks to explore and reimagine texts and themes, hermeneutical dynamics, theological issues, and faithful, located engagement for a post-Christendom church in the contemporary world.
