Stephen HayesAm I the only one in the entire Fediverse who uses the hashtag #missiology ?
If so, does this mean that missiology as an academic discipline is dying?
Something I wrote a while back. Now that the first quarter of the 21st century has passed, it might be time to look back and take stock: Orthodox mission in the 21st century

Forty years ago it was Christian civilization to the West, & godless commies to the East.
Has that now become Christian civilization to the East, & godless capitalists to the West, or something else?

From Hope to Hardship
<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d3799336e29">From Hope to Hardship begins with the missionary quest of Ralph and Edith Norton, who assisted John Wilbur Chapman around the turn of the twentieth century at the height of his success as a ‘mass-evangelist’ in major US cities and worldwide. The book explores the origins and development of the Nortons’ campaign, and the interactions between a transatlantic faith mission and the broader landscape of Belgian Protestantism. Through a detailed account of the historical context, in a vivid narrative the author examines how the theological framework of first-wave fundamentalism was creatively applied in a transcultural missionary context, introducing the reader to the mission’s evangelistic strategies against the socio-political and religious background of post–World War I Belgium. In this comprehensive monograph, Aaldert Prins offers a well-documented and nuanced understanding of the mission’s successes, struggles, and leadership changes, making this book an essential read for anyone interested in the history of transnational evangelicalism and its missionary endeavors. </p>
