Abstract

Is missiology, with such an eclectic background, a legitimate discipline that deserves equal status with other disciplines? To answer this question, this article surveys definitions, briefly investigates its development in the Protestant context, and suggests ways to maximize its potential while protecting it. The conclusion is that missiology should take a backseat to no discipline, but must remain surrendered to Scripture to maintain its distinctive contribution.
