Practitioners have developed diverse strategies to promote the spread of the Gospel-such as indigenous church planting, disciple-making movements, community development, dynamically equivalent Bible translations, and chronological Bible storytelling.

As that context shifts, it is also important to critically re-examine these models. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAdvancing Models of Mission\u003c\/em\u003e reflects on the missionaries and models of the past and reconsiders current models, all with the aim of looking toward the future of evangelical mission.
