Common Task

Christian mission takes place today in teh context of a pluralistic world, one in which the adherents of the various religious traditions are increasingly aware of and in dialogue with one another. What is needed now, argues Thangaraj, is an understanding of Christian mission that has for its starting point a moral imperative shared by all the world’s religions. The author finds this common task in what he calls the mission of humanity: those obligations to one another and the world which all humans share.
