Rethinking the Great Commission for the African Context: A Proposal for the Paradigm of Relational Missiology (Part I) - by Enoch Wan

Abstract

Given the fact that the popular practice in Christian mission in the West is "entrepreneurial" in conceptualization and "managerial" in operation, "relational missiology" is proposed as an alternative for the African context. In sharp contrast to western "managerial missiology" approaches, relational missiology is scripturally based, theologically grounded, theoretically coherent and contextually relevant for the African context for practical implementation.
