Description
The main argument in this work is that there must be a new mission model for the Church in Uganda in the 21st century. This mission model identified as Conversation helps to discover, disclose and unveil God's initiative and help turn human existence into human coexistence. The conversation suggested here as a usable tool in Christian mission is based on the philosophical concept that was developed by Richard Rorty in his book "Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature". In a world in which people go their own way, mission as conversation meets them at crossroads where they discover the grace of becoming co-travelers on the way to the truth. Thus truth in its fullness is an eschatological pursuit (cf. 1Cor. 13:12).
