| Summary: | In some contrast to the "New Evangelization" approach of his predecessors, Pope Francis's approach to mission might be characterized as a "missiology of attraction." This article explains how a missiology of attraction is rooted in an "attractive message" of God's mercy and tenderness. Such an understanding of God is embodied in an "attractive community" of an inclusive church, a church that offers an "attractive teaching" that is attentive to culture and context. |
