Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze articles that explicitly and implicitly deal with public theology topics published in「Theology of Mission」by members of the Korean Society of Mission Studies for the last 25 years. Due to limitations in space, the implicit articles are only briefly dealt with in the introduction and conclusion. In Chapter 2, the author introduces the following five explicit articles by offering a summary of each: Hyung-keun Choi’s “Historical, Theological, and Cultural Reflections for the Restoration of Publicity of the Korean Church,” Hae Lyong Cho’s “Church’s Responsibility and Duty in the Recovery of Publicity of the Gospel in the 21st Century Culture: Centered on Lesslie Newbigin’s Publicity of the Gospel” and “Ecological-missional Ecclesiology Achieving the Public Discipleship: Center of Howard Snyder’s Ecclesiology,” Seung-oh An’s ”Rethinking Public Theology,” and Hoon Jung’s “The Nature of Missiology as Public Theology.” In the conclusion, the author evaluates the interrelationship between the five articles and their missional significance, and gives recommendations.
