The World Missionary Conference in Edinburgh in 1910 was followed in 1928 by a Conference in Jerusalem. Jerusalem emphasised ‘the younger churches’, the term then used for the churches that had resulted from missionary work. This article examines the International Missionary Council's conference of 1938, held at the Madras Christian College, Tambaram, near Madras. It had over 470 participants from 70 nations. A feature of great significance was that participants from what we now call the Global South were in the majority. This aspect has been noted, but not explored in detail. A book that was produced for the Conference, Evangelism for the World Today, edited by John Mott, which included many contributors from the Global South, has received virtually no coverage. This article examines Mott's neglected book, the role of Africans at Tambaram, the voices of women and the ongoing influence of the Conference.
1910年在爱丁堡召开了世界传教士会议，1928年又在耶路撒冷召开了一次会议。耶路撒冷强调“年轻的教会”，这个词当时被用来指那些由传教工作产生的教会。这篇文章考察了1938年在马德拉斯附近的坦巴拉姆的马德拉斯基督教学院举行的国际传教委员会会议。它有来自70个国家的470多名参与者。一个非常重要的特点是，来自我们现在所说的全球南方的与会者占多数。这方面已经注意到，但没有详细探讨。由约翰·莫特(John Mott)编辑的一本名为《今日世界福音传福音》(Evangelism for the World Today)的书，包括许多来自全球南方的撰稿人，实际上没有得到任何报道。本文探讨莫特这本被忽视的书、非洲人在坦巴拉姆的角色、妇女的声音以及会议的持续影响。

Acts of intolerance in Indonesia are usually carried out against non-Muslim groups and Christians who are targeted, especially in cases related to the destruction of places of worship. Secularism has offered a solution to religious radicalism by drawing an absolute separation between religion and the state. However, viewed from a post-secularism perspective, secularism cannot be the right solution to religious radicalism. Post-secularism has played an essential role as a way for religion to enter into public life, but it has not comprehensively discussed how religion should function within it. It is hoped that religious freedom can be fully implemented in Indonesia, because Pancasila guarantees it so that confessional pluralism can be realized in the context of sphere sovereignty. The study's findings offer principled pluralism to provide an understanding of the place of religion in a post-secular society and how it should function within it to resolve religious intolerance.

Theological education in the Orthodox world has some specific characteristics framed within a particular liturgical rhythm, emphasising the mystagogical rather than the pedagogies. It is counterintuitive and looks to the Patristic Tradition as a revealed theological landmark. The educational vision of the formation of theologians in the Church is to prepare them to share in the mystery of the Kingdom of God in the present, but with the living experience of the Fathers of the past as a model or ethos of spiritual living. We are witnessing an educational failure to the extent that theological teaching does not target the substance of theology. Often the work of grace is abandoned leading to the emergence of a new species of teacher and thinker, professional priests and missionaries, very well equipped with the tools of preaching and witness, but without the life of the Spirit, which must be transmitted through these tools.

This paper aims to provide a glimpse of the Convention of Philippine Baptist Churches’ (CPBC) theological education and missional formation specifically through the Central Philippine University College of Theology (CPU CT). In her beginnings and how the CPU CT treaded the path of the pandemic, I have given specific attention to the use of Hiligaynon and woman lenses. Both the indigenous Hiligaynon and woman perspectives have often been left out in reading history and in interpreting the present. The use of both indigenous Hiligaynon and woman perspectives shows a history that is affirming of the devalued indigenous Hiligaynon and woman perspectives because of hegemonic colonial and patriarchal thinking. A step forward or sideward for the CPU CT could be taking a more affirming and empowering take toward embracing the Hiligaynon culture, language and spirituality as well as intentionally recognizing the space and being of women in doing theology and mission.

The Latin American Biblical University (UBL) was one of the first institutions in Costa Rica to offer distance education. As the UBL moved to online education, it adopted a community of inquiry model. In the context of the pandemic, the UBL developed this model further with innovative educational experiences and a focus on intercontextual education in real time. In addition, online support groups helped students cope with the stress of the pandemic and modeled new forms of pastoral care.

This article will explore the metaphor of hospitality as an approach to theological education and missional formation for bridging the gap between the catholicity of the church and theological curricula which are rooted in specific traditions and contexts. The argument starts with a reflection on online teaching as a context renewed through the pandemic which reflects back on classroom teaching. The article explores the forms of presence offline and online and fleshes out what hospitality offers for new avenues for theological education and missional formation in context.

This article discusses the role of Christian theological education in integrating an ecological vision into missional formation. Using Jakarta Theological Seminary's (JTS) Green Campus Blue Seminary program as a case study, it expounds on the contextuality and multidirectionality of this Indonesian theological seminary's educational program as eco-missional formation amid contemporary environmental problems, particularly the marine ecological crisis. My argument is twofold. First, eco-missional formation is imperative for theological education as part of its missional task amid the current ecological crisis. Second, envisioning theological education as eco-missional formation requires a reimagination of missiology from within the marine ecological crisis—thus, I refer to this as blue missiology. I identify the contextual-constructive dimension of blue missiology by interconnecting JTS's eco-missional formation, the history of environmental mission, local Indonesian narratives of the sea, and blue spirituality as the core of eco-missional formation.
