Christian faith has always been centrifugal, rarely containable, and viscerally cross-cultural. The mission of the Christian Church is therefore expansive, intentionally persuasive, and usually outward-looking.

The academic study of this mission is called missiology. Often regarded in terms of its European roots (think University of Edinburgh), American divinity schools and faculties of missiology have in the last three decades pumped out legions of graduates. The International Bulletin of Missionary Research, published by the high-regarded Overseas Ministries Study Center, has emerged as one of the dominant trade journals for this academic study.

Its pages are frequently filled by articles, essays, and dissertation synopses produced by non-Western scholars, who increasingly represent the dynamic as well as the demographic center of Christian mission. The monthly Bulletin is edited and produced to a high standard and as made itself an indispensable source for missionary research.

One of its most popular features is entitled 'My Pilgrimage in Mission', which chronicles changes in the enterprise via first-hand accounts of how living beyond one's familiar context changes a person from the inside out.
