This fine collection of scholarly articles welcomes us into a conversational space, engaging the concept of mission in a changing world where past approaches are assessed, and new challenges engaged, in a process of redefining the meaning and focus of mission in an increasingly secular but multicultural and religiously diverse world. Consideration of important questions is the driving force for research: What theological resources does the church bring to bear in its engagement with a globalised world? Where and how do we do mission today? How does mission transform the missioner? How does Catholic theology relate to other religious traditions and cultures? Where are the welcoming spaces? How do we undertake mission in the context of human trafficking?
