Description
Summary:In his 1998 article titled "God Inside Out: Toward a Missionary Theology of the Holy Spirit," Stephen Bevans referred to Johannes Hoekendijk's 1964 publication The Church Inside Out as his starting point. This article follows Bevans's lead in exploring Hoekendijk's legacy and contribution to theology and mission today. At key points I draw the connection of Hoekendijk's thinking with that of Bevans, highlighting in the end the manner in which they both agree that the church itself is not of ultimate importance to God, but the world into which the Spirit still sends us in mission.
