Riepilogo: | Communication was a crucial element of E. Stanley Jones’s effectiveness as a missionary, spokesman, and advocate in India and across the world. From friendship with Mahatma Gandhi, his influence on Martin Luther King Jr., to his founding of the worldwide Christian Ashram movement and Round Table conferences, Jones demonstrated that interconnectedness is a necessary aspect of effective interfaith and inter-race communication. This article examines the communication practices of E. Stanley Jones, through the lens of Actor-Network Theory (ANT), using its view of interconnectedness to explain the effectiveness of Jones’s impact. However, due to ANT’s limitations, the Actor in God’s Network Theory (AGNT) is introduced, providing prescriptive advice from Jones for practical Christian communication today. |
