Description
Summary:This article examines the correspondence in the pneumatological impulse for mission among three documents: Evangelii Gaudium (EG), Together towards Life (TTL), and The Cape Town Commitment (CTC). This consonance in EG, TTL, and CTC is significant given the dissonance on theological and missiological perspectives across the representing ecclesial bodies since the mid-20th century. Following a review of pneumatology in these three documents, the paper proposes a forward-looking trajectory to a more expansive view of the Spirit's ever-mysterious operations in the church, in missions, and in the world.
