New Missiology Gateway Coming Soon

Tim Davy of Redcliffe College contacted me recently and asked if I had considered developing the two pages on TheologicalStudies.org.uk into a site on Christian Missions. This struck a chord with what I had been thinking for some time - that I was hardly doing justice to this vast and important subject. After putting the idea to a member of staff at All Nations Christian College - who was also extremely enthusiastic - I decided to register the domain http://www.missiology.org.uk/

I have drafted a structure (below) so that you can see what subjects the site might eventually host bibliographies and resources on:


Theology
- Old Testament
- New Testament
- Contemporary, etc.

History of Missions
- Early
- Medieval
- Modern

Mission Skills
- Bible Translation [I would like help from Wycliffe Bibloe Translators on this section]
- Cross-Cultural Evangelism
- Culture Shock
- Family
- Finance & Support
- Health
- Spiritual Life (incl. Prayer)
- Teaching English as a Foreign Language
- "Tentmaking", etc.

Countries [Eventually covering most countries]
- Africa
- Asia
- Europe
- North America
- South America
- Oceania

Religions
- Animism
- Buddhism
- Hinduism
- Islam, etc.

People
- William Carey
- Adoniram Judson, etc.

I am looking for Colleges, organisations and interested individuals who are prepared to partner with me in creating this new Gateway, initially by providing bibliographies on their own areas of interest and expertise. In order to do so effectively I have created a Facebook group called Missiology.org.uk Working Group for those wishing to help. To join please send me an e-mail to rob(at)biblicalstudies.org.uk - (remember to substitute a '@').

I hope to have the site running by the beginning of the next academic year.
