From first chapter of Jesus and the Other Names, which recounts his own theological and dialogical odyssey, Knitter constructs what he calls a "correlational, globally-responsible theology of religions" as a necessary correction to traditional pluralist and exclusivist approaches. By anticipating and addressing his critics - both consevative and liberal - Knitter makes a powrful argument for a reconstruction of mission faithful to the Crhsitian imperative and dynamically attuned to the plurality of the world.
Jesus and the Other Names will give pause to those who believe Christian mission can be carried on as it was in the modern era. Sure to inspire debate as well as dialogue it offers more humble, but perhaps more "Christic," postmodern approach to mission in the nwe millennium that has little to do with earthly glory and nothing to do with sense of cultural superiority that has so often - and often so tragically - accompanied modern missionary movement. Tehologians, missiologists, Christian historiasn, can all benerfit from its thoughtful and timely message.
