Abstract
The conference theme, “Global Arts on Mission: Embedded, Embodied, and Empowered” explored the arts in mission for the first time in the 50-year history of the ASM. This article features the Presidential address from the annual meetings. Its purpose was to consider the dynamics of contextualized arts on mission over the last 45 years drawing from three case studies of my work as a missiologist-cum-ethnomusicologist. The theoretical concept of musicking provides a foundation for exegeting musical cultures, revealing the dialogical nature of shared musical performance. Not only does it point to how the nations around the world continue to discover their unique voices in raising songs of witness and worship to the Lord Jesus Christ, but it also presents longitudinal perspectives of the enduring impact of global arts on mission.
