Extended Bibliography on Design and Mission

This article is exactly what it sounds like.

I’d love to have a chance to curate this list and expand on why I like, dislike, agree, or disagree with these titles. That will have to wait. But if you’re looking for a starting point or an inroad into this conversation, there is ample material here to get you started.

This is basically my research on the intersection between Missiology, Contextualization Theory, Design Thinking, and Innovation Theory.

Enjoy!
