A new website to support and inspire mission has been launched in a joint venture by the Anglican mission agency the United Society for the Propagation of the Gospel and the Methodist Church.

The Rethinking Mission website is free to access and will keep Christians informed with regular updates on events as well as information and articles designed to stimulate new approaches to the theology of mission and open up mission resources to more and more people.

The new site, launched earlier in the month, features a monthly article on the issues relating to mission around the world.

It will also draw from an archive of articles from the magazine version of Rethinking Mission run by USPG, the Methodist Church and the United College of the Ascension in Birmingham.

The lead article for this month is by Jonathan Gichaara, a minister of the Methodist Church of Kenya who has been working in Sheffield for the last five years.

In his latest article, ‘A look at the British Church and society from a ‘third eye’’, Gichaara observes that, “One unnerving reality that hits a newcomer to the church in Britain, and especially the so-called mainline churches is the numerically low church membership and attendance”.

The Rethinking Mission website is edited by Clare Amos, Director of Theological Studies for the Anglican Communion Office and Theological Resource Officer of USPG.

USPG is an Anglican world mission agency which seeks to enable the spiritual development of people and be a voice against injustice for vulnerable people in partnership with local churches and their communities.
