Perspectives on the World Christian Movement: A Reader (Volume 3)
Ralph D. Winter (December 8, 1924 – May 20, 2009) was an American missiologist and missionary who helped pioneer Theological Education by Extension, raised the debate about the role of the church and mission structures and became well known as the advocate for pioneer outreach among unreached people groups. He was the founder of the U.S. Center for World Mission (USCWM), William Carey International University, and the International Society for Frontier Missiology.
Steven C. Hawthorne’s mission journey began at Urbana ’76, where John Stott and Ralph Winter shaped his vision for global evangelization. While earning his master’s at Fuller Seminary, he copyedited the first Perspectives reader with Winter and later served as executive editor of World Christian magazine. He launched research teams to identify unreached peoples in major world cities and continued this work with Caleb Project. In 2013, he completed a PhD in biblical mission theology at Fuller. Today, he directs WayMakers, a ministry mobilizing prayer for Christ’s glory, writing and speaking to ignite passion for God’s global purposes.
