The fire, zeal and passion that ignited their vision, and also fueled others to participate, can die right along with them. Not so with the original vision of NTM. Seventy-one years later, the dream is still alive. But so is the enemy … 30 Come On In! The Water’s Fine! Whether you doggy- paddle or do high dives, there’s room on the roster for you.

It’s been said to me, “And that’s why I could never be a missionary!” or “I could never do that!” or “Wow, I can’t believe you do that!” and I have said similar things about tribal missionaries: “I could never live in a tribe,” “I would never be able to make it without having another woman to talk to in Angela Ketcham was raised by my first language,” “I would never be able to handle a single mom.

    Page 1 Evangelical Missiological Society National Conference 2020 Abstract Booklet Friday October 9, 2020 10:00-11:15 AM Plenary #1 Room 1 – Emma Wild-Wood (University of Edinburgh) [email protected] A History of Evangelicalism in Africa during the 20th century This paper presents a history of evangelicalism in Africa by examining some of the reasons why it has found such fertile soil on the continent and how it developed over 20th century. It also addresses why it is that the evangelical movement has often been overlooked in the historiography of African Christianity except where it adopted a strongly Pentecostal-Charismatic character. The Protestant modern missionary movement was overwhelmingly evangelical in persuasion. The majority of conversionary relations were prompted by early African adopters of Christianity who evangelized their own communities and travelled to neighboring polities with the gospel. In the process of transmission, African Christians made the movement their own, and applied its tenets to their own social-political contexts. By examining some of these contexts in depth we can better understand the influence of evangelicalism as a social movement and why scholarly trends – if not individual scholars – have tended to overlook its importance. The paper will take examples from East Africa, and focus upon the trans-local adaption of a transnational movement over 100 years. Emma Wild-Wood is Senior Lecturer of African Christianity and African Indigenous Religions at the University of Edinburgh and Co-director of the Centre for the Study of World Christianity. Previously she taught at University of Cambridge. She has also taught in D R Congo and Uganda.

Study the whole Bible in two years with an emphasis on cross-cultural missions. PREPARE FOR LIFE AND MINISTRY, leading to an Associate Degree in Biblical Studies. 1.800.555.6824 e360bible.org FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Dear Readers, Ethnos, founded in 1942 as New Tribes Mission, was founded with a deep rooted desire to hold nothing back, but to hazard all for the cause of Christ. When five of our first missionaries were martyred in the jungles of Bolivia, the rest of the team, their wives included, pressed on to bring the gospel to the Ayoré people. The tragic loss of life didn’t end with the death of those first five. Even as the number of casualties grew, believers —both men and women—kept signing up to commit their lives to reach the unreached and the ministry grew. Photo by Rich Brown That kind of determination is going to be needed as we begin sending teams to reach Canada’s First Peoples. A determination to go anywhere, under any circumstances for the cause of Christ, regardless of the cost. Think about where Canada’s unreached First Peoples are living today. Serving as part of the Church in these contexts means going places where ETHNOS magazine the work is going to be difficult. The conditions are going to be dangerous. Our determination is going to be tested again and again.
