Technology & Trends in Missions: An Editorial Introduction

Authors

Abstract

Twenty centuries have come and gone since the inception of the Church at Pentecost and the subsequent mission to which she was commissioned.  Though at times the Church has experienced what Hesselgrave and Stetzer refer to as “Mission Shift”, the core mission of making disciples among the nations has survived to the present.   Trends, for better or worse, have certainly contributed changes both in defining and in executing mission.  One stream of trend that has helped advance and shape the Church is its use of technological advances.  Our modern understanding of technology turns our thoughts to computers, cell phones, apps, and transportation.
