Gospel, Story, Worldview, and the Church's Mission
by Michael Goheen | 04/13/07
Event: 2007 San Diego Regionals | Category: Missional
This session will explore the relationship between the four terms in this title-gospel, story, worldview, and the church's mission. What will be examined is the following: The gospel is the climax and lens of the biblical story which claims to be the true story of the world. The church's place in that story is bearing witness in life, word, and deed to the end of the story. Worldview has helped to recover the comprehensive scope of the gospel to equip the church for its all-embracing mission in the world.
Michael Goheen is the Geneva Professor of Religious and Worldview Studies at Trinity Western University, Langley, B.C. and minister of preaching at New West Christian Reformed Church, Burnaby, B.C. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Utrecht (Netherlands) writing a dissertation on the missionary ecclesiology of Lesslie Newbigin.
