Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate some missionary “models” or “paradigms” proposed by authors of different traditions and disciplines. This, we hope, will allow us to proceed to a critical reading of the Churches’ missionary action, with an eye towards the future of Christian witness, as the global missionary movement today, a century after the Congress of Edinburg, is able to see Christian witness far from rigid confessional boundaries.
