FROM THE FOREWORD
Younglae Kim, Ph.D.
The book you hold in your hands holds promise for reawakening the apostolic imagination at the heart of biblical faith. Dr. Clarke masterfully reclaims and represents “tradition”, a word unfortunately associated with spiritual mediocrity, cultural irrelevance, and dead religion. He rediscovers the innate notion of “tradition” by creatively coining the word, “traditioneering”. Christianity, or as he puts it, “The Jesus Tradition”, is about courageous missional engagement with the world by disciples living out the gospel within culture, and not apart from it.
Traditioneering Like Jesus, is written by a real pastor who serves in the real trenches of local church ministry, day in and day out. Dr. Clarke understands what ministry is really like. He is considered by many Korean church leaders as a leading visionary and practitioner of Christianity in the world today. Dr. Clarke is greatly admired and respected for his creative efforts in bringing together the “past and future”, “West and East”, “church and world”.
Dr. Clarke is uniquely qualified to write this book, not only because he is a faithful follower and apprentice of Jesus Christ, but also because he exemplifies utmost sensitivity and commitment to global mission and ministry.
