Abstract
Bosch’s missiological thinking shows the extent to which
he draws from the tradition of World mission conferences.
The article traces how he connects with the conferences
from Edinburgh 1910 to Achimota 1958. In a cursory way it
is shown that Bosch’s Missiology in general and the
manner in which he connects with the mission
conferences specifically reflect a tendency to universalism.
This is shown inter alia by picking up on issues from the
conferences which are of a contextual nature and which
find no reflection in Bosch’s thinking. One such issue is
race, which featured in one form or another at all six
conferences discussed in the article.
