Lesslie Newbigin’s missionary ecclesiology

18 01 2005

Thanks to the resource link by John Roxborogh (from New Zealand) I’ll be checking out this thesis by Michael W. Goheen ‘As the Father has sent me, I am sending you’: J.E. Lesslie Newbigin’s missionary ecclesiology’ definately sometime soon (for a pdf download click here)

Please get in touch as I am trying to write a biography of Lesslie Newbigin. Mike Goheen’s book is extremely good, though defective in biographical information. I take if you already know George Hunsberger’s work? There is also a dissertation in the University of Birmingham Ronald Orchard Centre( where Newbigin’s papers are deposited) by a Father Kelly. (I can look up the precise details if you are interested) It is an early work (1970s) and is quite important for appreciating newbigin’s ecumenical theology.
