Dedication
We dedicate this volume to the past deans of Fuller Seminary’s School of Intercultural Studies (formally the School of World Mission and Institute of Church Growth) who have encouraged mission engagement in global contexts, including in the West:
Donald A. McGavran (1965–1971)
Arthur F. Glasser (1971–1980)
Paul E. Pierson (1980–1992)
J. Dudley Woodberry (1992–1999)
Sherwood G. Lingenfelter (1999–2003)
C. Douglas McConnell (2003–2011)
This first volume in the Missiological Engagement Series derives from the 2014 Missiology Lectures, which have been held annually at SWM/SIS since 1965 under the oversight of these innovative leaders in global mission. We are indebted to all of them.
