This book raises critical questions concerned with life issues, faith, ethics, theology, mission, morality and values; thereby covering the whole existential questions of our time. It also challenges the readers to rethink about faith, theology and mission in the midst of the deadly COVID – 19 pandemic and contemporary realities. The book consists of 15 chapters dealing with various critical existential and theological issues including tribal theology and its related concerns, methodological issues of contextual theology, climate change and climate justice, theology of human rights in relation to the rights of the whole creation, liberation as theological theme, theological critique of prosperity theology, theological response to corruption, churches’ response to challenges of globalization, theology of land, eco-theology and its implication, pertinence of ethics in development debates, rethinking of mission and mission mandate, etc. The book calls for conversion of faith, theology and mission – from the highly traditional dualistic, anthropocentric, individualistic and otherworldly understanding to holistic, inclusive and interrelatedness of all creation view of life and reality. It powerfully challenges the status quo of faith and understanding of theology and mission, and offers a clarion call for faith seeking transformation!
