Evangelical Missiological Society 2012 Call for Papers

Evangelical Missiological Society 2012 Call for Papers
Theme:  Missionary Methods

In recognition of the 100th anniversary of the publication of Roland Allen’s missionary classic, Missionary Methods: St. Paul’s or Ours?, EMS is hosting regional meetings and a national gathering with the theme “Missionary Methods.”

Papers that reflect biblical, theological, missiological, historical, and practical discussions related to missionary methods are desired.  This includes reflections on current evangelical missionary methodology, case studies, multi-discipline research- and survey-based papers, as well as studies that build upon field-based research or in-field missionary experience.  Papers that offer a theological critique, historical analysis, or the contemporary implications of Roland Allen’s classic work are also encouraged.

The presentation protocol of the Evangelical Missiological Society is that all potential presenters for the 2012 annual meeting must first submit and present papers in their regions.  Please contact your Regional Vice President for additional instructions and the dates of your regional meeting.  

For more information see the 2012 EMS Call for Papers.

 


 

Enoch Wan, Ph.D.

From the desk of the EMS President

Christian Greetings,

Last month the Evangelical Missiological Society held its annual meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona in conjunction with the annual meetings of The Mission Exchange and CrossGlobal Link.  The meeting was well attended, with dozens of papers presented, and the release of the latest book in the EMS series - Reflecting God’s Glory Together: Diversity in Evangelical Mission, edited by A. Scott Moreau and Beth Snodderly.

In addition to a change in our Constitution regarding the election of officers, we also welcomed several new regional VPs: John Wang (Northeast), Steve Strauss (South Central), Mark Naylor (Canada), and Dale Wolyniak (Rocky Mountain).  Those being elected to a second term include: Bob Priest (VP North Central), Mike Barnett (VP Publications), and myself as President.

While we await the decision regarding the future structure and organization of the merger of The Mission Exchange and CrossGlobal Link, our plans are to continue to meet with them for our annual meeting next year in Chicago.  The theme for 2012 is “Missionary Methods” to mark the 100th anniversary of the publication of Roland Allen’s classic Missionary Methods: St. Paul’s or Ours?

May the Lord continue to bless you in your labors for His Kingdom!

Enoch Wan
