Johnson introduces the idea of apostolic function as the paradigm of missionary self-identity that reminds us to focus our efforts on where Christ is not named. He then examines in detail the "where" paradigm in missions, frontier mission missiology, with a sympathetic critique and a review of the major contributions of unreached people group thinking. Johnson concludes by illustrating his notion of seeking to integrate missions paradigms and discussing of issues that relate specifically to the "where" questions of missions today."--Back cover 517 3 $aApostolic function in twenty-first century missions 606 $aMissions$xTheory 615 0$aMissions$xTheory. 676 $a266/.994 700 $aJohnson$b Alan R$01692411 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807652603321 996 $aApostolic function in 21st century missions$94069491 997 $aUNINA
