Summary
This edited book presents Canadian reflections on understanding and practicing church mission in a time of multiple crises that impact the nation. It covers the biblical and theological bases in doing mission for such times, provides case studies that serve the globally displaced in Canada, and discusses emerging challenges in mission. The chapter contributors come from seminaries, mission agencies, and reflective church practitioners. At the end of the book, the editors challenge their readers to engage in more praxis (action and reflection) that fits the Canadian realities.
