Description
The IJFM is published in the name of the International Student Leaders Coalition for Frontier Missions, a fellowship of younger leaders committed to the purposes of the twin consultations of Edinburgh 1980: The World Consultation on Frontier Missions and the International Student Consultation on Frontier Missions. As an expression of the ongoing concerns of Edinburgh 1980, the IJFM seeks to:
– promote intergenerational dialogue between senior and junior mission leaders;
– cultivate an international fraternity of thought in the development of frontier missiology;
– highlight the need to maintain, renew, and create mission agencies as vehicles for frontier missions;
– encourage multidimensional and interdisciplinary studies;
– foster spiritual devotion as well as intellectual growth; and
– advocate “A Church for Every People.”
