About the Author
Lesslie Newbigin (1909–1998) was a renowned theologian, missionary, and church leader. Born and educated in England, he later ministered for several decades in India. Over the course of his career, he held leadership roles in the International Missionary Council and the World Council of Churches. In recognition of his accomplishments in missiology and ecclesiology, he was awarded honorary doctorates from numerous institutions, including the University of Cambridge and the University of Edinburgh. He published more than twenty books, including Foolishness to the Greeks: The Gospel and Western Culture and The Gospel in a Pluralist Society.
From the Back Cover
The late Lesslie Newbigin was widely regarded as one of this generation'smost significant voices on Christianity in relation to modern society. Nowthat he is gone, there is a call for his unpublished writings to be madeavailable. To that end "Signs amid the Rubble gathers some of Newbigin'sfinest statements on issues of continuing relevance.
The first set of chapters consists of the 1941Bangalore Lectures, in which Newbigin speaks powerfully of the kingdomof God in relation to the modern -- severely deficient -- idea of "progress." The second group of writings, the Henry Martyn Lectures of 1986, deals mainly with the importance of Christian mission. In the last piece, his address to the World Council of Churches conference on mission andevangelism in Brazil in 1996 -- which editor Geoffrey Wainwright calls his "swan song on the ecumenical stage" -- Newbigin wondersaloud how future generations will judge today's practice of abortion.
