New Anvil journal showcases students’ thinking

The latest issue of ANVIL journal of theology and mission features reflections on mission and pioneering from CMS students.

It is our pleasure to profile some of our students’ work in this edition of ANVIL.

One of the mantras across our courses and programmes is that everyone has a piece of the wisdom.

The insights and wisdom coming from the grounded and lived experience of mission and pioneering deeply enrich our class discussions and mean that our missiological discussion can never take place in the abstract.

As the lived experience of students comes together with the biblical and theological writings and reflections of scholars, new insights and possibilities emerge.

Given the diverse contexts of their mission and pioneering, it is no surprise that our students are producing insightful pieces of work drawing on the questions and reflections emerging from their mission practice, including:

• Ethiopian Church Forests inspire East End mission
• The triple blessing of African Christianity
• Perceptions of God on an outer urban estate
• Missional enterprise meets elder care
• Autoethnographic performance poetry

While there could have been many more pieces selected, we hope that this selection will prove enjoyable reading.
