Description
Summary:This article explores the relationship between diversity and truth from a missiological perspective. This question is explored in the relation between Christianity and other religious traditions, and in the relationship between Christian faith and culture. A shift in the understanding of mission from a primary concern to build up the Christian community to a primary concern of participation in the building up of God's reign provides new spaces for understanding aspects of these relationships. Both areas of study are yielding emerging principles and criteria that are helpful in discerning the relationship between truth and diversity.
