Description: Contextualization in the New Testament by Dean Flemming Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description To provide a model for todays missionary efforts, Dean Flemming examines how the New Testament authors--particularly in Acts, Pauls letters and the Gospels--contextualized the gospel for particular cultures and/or communities. Publisher Description Winner of a Christianity Today Book AwardHonored as one of the "Fifteen Outstanding Books for Mission Studies" by International Bulletin of Missionary ResearchFrom Cairo to Calcutta, from Cochabamba to Columbus, Christians are engaged in a conversation about how to speak and live the gospel in todays traditional, modern and emergent cultures. The technical term for their efforts is contextualization. Missionary theorists have pondered and written on it at length. More and more, those who do theology in the West are also trying to discover new ways of communicating and embodying the gospel for an emerging postmodern culture. But few have considered in depth how the early church contextualized the gospel. And yet the New Testament provides numerous examples.As both a crosscultural missionary and a New Testament scholar, Dean Flemming is well equipped to examine how the early church contextualized the gospel and to draw out lessons for today. By carefully sifting the New Testament evidence, Flemming uncovers the patterns and parameters of a Paul or Mark or John as they spoke the Word on target, and he brings these to bear on our contemporary missiological task.Rich in insights and conversant with frontline thinking, this is a book that will revitalize the conversation and refresh our speaking and living the gospel in todays cultures, whether in traditional, modern or emergent contexts.
