The diversity of world Christianity is evident not merely outside our borders but even within our own neighborhoods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver the past half century theologians and missiologists have addressed this reality by developing local and contextual theologies and by exploring issues like contextualization, inculturation, and translation. In recent years these various trajectories have coalesced into a new field called intercultural theology. Bringing together missiology, religious studies, social science research, and Christian theology, the field of intercultural theology is a fresh attempt to rethink the discipline of theology in light of the diversity and pluriformity of Christianity today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenning Wrogemann, one of the leading missiologists and scholars of religion in Europe, has written the most comprehensive textbook on the subject of Christianity and culture today.

Volume one introduces the concepts of culture and context, volume two surveys theologies of mission both past and present, and volume three explores theologies of religion and interreligious relationships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this first volume on intercultural hermeneutics, Wrogemann introduces the term \"intercultural theology\" and investigates what it means to understand another cultural context. In addition to surveying different hermeneutical theories and concepts of culture, he assesses how intercultural understanding has taken place throughout the history of Christian mission. Wrogemann also provides an extensive discussion of contextual theologies with a special focus on African theologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIntercultural Theology\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis an indispensable resource for all people--especially students, pastors, and scholars--that explores the defining issues of Christian identity and practice in the context of an increasingly intercultural and interreligious world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMissiological Engagements charts interdisciplinary and innovative trajectories in the history, theology, and practice of Christian mission, featuring contributions by leading thinkers from both the Euro-American West and the majority world whose missiological scholarship bridges church, academy, and society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhy shop with Christian Bible Service?\u003c\/em\u003e We offer quality Christian books and Bibles, fast and reliable delivery, and trusted customer service.
