Diaspora Missiology: Theory, Methodology, and Practice

Diaspora Missiology: Theory, Methodology, and Practice

The movement of people spatially at an unprecedented scale is a special social phenomenon of the 21st century. Among these people on the move are those who take up residence away from their place of originâ€”the â€œdiasporaâ€â€”who are the focus of this study. This book is an interdisciplinary study on the 21st century demographic reality that led to the development of â€œdiaspora missiologyâ€ as a new missiological paradigm, and the need to practice â€œdiaspora missionsâ€ as a new mission strategy. This book is an introductory study on the theory, methodology, and practice of â€œdiaspora missiology.â€ This book began with Part 1 which includes an introduction of preliminary matters and phenomenological descriptions of global trends of increasing demographic significance of diaspora and the shifting of the Christian churchâ€™s center of gravity in the 21st century. In response to these factual data, new theoretical frameworks and methodological considerations were proposed in Parts 2 and 3. Eight case studies were presented to illustrate the necessity and viability of diaspora missiology and diaspora missions in Part 4.
