Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Centenary Conference on the Protestant Missions of the World, Vol. 1: Held in Exeter Hall (June 9th 19th), London, 1888
The term centenary is employed with sufficient accuracy in reference to a Conference on work carried on over a lengthened period, nearly reached by many Societies and preceded by a few. It would have been wrong if used in regard to the celebration of an event. Each Society may have its own centenary celebration with which our Conference in no way interferes.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book records the proceedings of a conference on foreign missions held in London, England in June 1888. The collected essays presented at the conference give an account of the state of mission fields at the end of that century, along with speeches summarizing the methods and results of different missions to that point. The Protestant missions represented at the conference were from England, Scotland, and Ireland, alongside other European and American groups. Contributors included representatives from the major missionary societies of the day, along with prominent lay figures such as Sir William Hunter and Herbert Tritton. Attendees found themselves in agreement that while the total number of converts made by the close of the 19th century was small when compared to the total global population, the rate of conversions per capita was increasing every year. Recognizing the importance of cultural context, the author delves deep into the religions and cultures that missionaries encountered and sought to engage with in the hopes of converting them to Christianity. The author also emphasizes the importance of the lay public to the missionary endeavor, as well as the influence of commerce on the reception and expansion of Christianity in various global regions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331462262_0
