dc.description.abstract |
This article explores the possibility of the involvement of the ecumenical church in
addressing the complex issue of sex trafficking. It is done through a glocal theological
theory built on missional theology and social ethics as human trafficking is reinterpreted
to be a theological issue which could lead to a life-giving mission. Research takes place
within the transformative paradigm using a mixed-methods approach, and the theory
and praxis are examined with the fullness of life, human dignity, hope, justice and
healing in mind. As a destination for sex trafficking, empirical research was done
in Rustenburg, South Africa, among victims and survivors, missional workers and
church leaders, and experts in the field. This assisted the investigation into the viability
and content of this theory. It is then argued that a missional appropriation based on
hope, liberation and justice adds a new dimension to being church and leads to a
transformative mission to victims. |
