Climate Change: the agenda for mission today

The claim that climate change is the agenda for mission is, to say the very least, controversial. Yet, in two senses that is precisely the claim made in the title of this book. Firstly, climate change is the lens through which we must now understand the significance and importance of Christian mission. Secondly, climate change is the agenda which takes precedence over other mission agendas. The task, one which we must acknowledge is in its infancy, is to articulate a coherent and grounded theology that takes climate change as its primary data. This book, Climate Change: the agenda for mission today, is but a modest start in the task of creating a fundamental shift in the understanding of mission.
