the conscious, intentional, ongoing reflection on the doing of mission
'''Missiology''' is defined by the Missions Dictionary as:
*"the conscious, intentional, ongoing reflection on the doing of [[mission]]. It includes theory(ies) of mission, the study and teaching of mission, as well as the research, writing, and publication of works regarding mission" (Neely 2000, 633). "1. the study of the salvation activities of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit throughout the world geared toward bringing the kingdom of God into existence, 2. the study of the worldwide church's divine mandate to be ready to serve this God who is aiming his saving acts toward this world" (Verkuyl 1978, 5).
