ABSTRACT

The purpose of this work is to find the mission theological implications necessary for the study and direction of the Korean church by researching the missional legacy left by J. Dudley Woodberry through his life and ministry for Muslim evangelism. This work is introducing the core elements of Dudley Woodberry’s missiology for Islam Mission. His missiology for Islam mission was formed by evangelical faith, mission field experiences and various distinguished scholars with academic tradition and continuity. Those influences provided concrete resources to Dudley. His missiology consisted of love, passion, peace and respect to engage in meaningful encounters with Muslims. His missiology was based on the professional knowledge and understanding of Islam. Dudley Woodberry’s missiology for Islam consisted of four elements: the Muslim sources, the non-Muslim sources, the popular beliefs and practices of Islam, and the mission. The Islamic studies of Dudley Woodberry has opened a new horizon of Christian missiology for Islam mission in the 21st century.
