Lausanne Movement for Friday, 15 September 2017 - Lausanne Global Analysis: Innovation in Mission, Saudi Influence and Islamic Radicalism in Indonesia, and more

Lausanne Global Analysis · September 2017
SHARE:
Welcome to the September issue of the Lausanne Global Analysis, which will soon also be available in Portuguese and Spanish.
In this issue we ask how Islamic radicalism and Saudi influence can be countered in Indonesia in the wake of former Jakarta Governor Ahok’s imprisonment on blasphemy charges; we highlight the church’s call to minister to, for, and with children-at-risk, empowering them to flourish as co-laborers in mission; we address the topic of innovation for integral mission, asking how we can generate more creative thinking, planning, and action to spread the gospel to the corners of the world; and we discuss how faithful presence means penetrating high and low culture for Christ as we assess the continuing salience of James Davison Hunter’s book, To Change the World: The Irony, Tragedy, and Possibility of Christianity in the Late Modern World.
