“Contextualization”—or the process of making Scriptural interpretation relevant to a modern setting—is precisely what everyone must claim to understand and do in order to join contemporary discussions of being “missional.” But who’s doing what kind of contextualization? When the gap between Scripture and our society is clear, does contextualization mean an intentional advance or a studied retreat?
