Summary

Secularization is strong in Canada and has influence worldwide. In this volume, missiologists and practitioners from across Canada consider how an agenda of Christian mission and evangelism can be advanced in a secularizing environment. The writers recognize the importance of being relevant to society while maintaining integrity with the Gospel message. The 12 essays address secularism in Canadian and worldwide contexts with seriousness, insight, and an underlying theme of hope, recognizing that, as Santos ends the book, “God’s mission has been accomplished, is being accomplished, and will be accomplished.”
