| Summary: | By way of an evangelical reponse to Stephen Judd, Escobar insists on the need to recover the memory of what has been the shape and outcome of North American missionary action in Latin America. Catholics and evangelicals need to compare notes in order to understand better their respective stories and to formulate a valid and relevant missionary strategy for the future. The deteriorated social conditions as well as the collapse of real socialism after the fall of the Berlin Wall demand new paradigms for understanding mission and shaping missionary action. Popular churches are part of the emergence of the poor in Latin America, and missionary action can take place only in authentic partnership with them. |
