Questions:
At the turn of the 20th century, secularization began to permeate society, and the topic of missions (both at home and abroad) become a dominant issue on the religious landscape.
After reviewing the article titled, "Religion and Sociology" by B. Wilson - Religion in American history: A reader, Butler & Stout, what role did missions have in addressing the cultural shift toward secularization at the beginning of the 20th century? Did it have any impact?
Taking into account that we live in the 'information age' in a 'global village', is there still the same need for missions today as their was at the turn of the 20th century? How so?
