Abstract	"There are a variety of religious missions. Christianity is neither the only nor the first religion to express a missionary impulse.This comparative introduction explores the mission obligation as it is expressed across seven religious and nonreligious traditions: the Bahá'í Faith, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Mormonism, and Nonreligion. The methods and motives for the global expansion of each tradition is analyzed in a parallel structure that facilitates comparison and contrast across traditions.The book also develops innovative frameworks for comparative mission studies and interreligious encounters. The first edition of World Religions and Their Missions was foundational in establishing an international conversation about "comparative missiology." This second edition features expanded chapters, updated data, and entirely new chapters. The textbook format makes it useful for courses in in world religions, interreligious studies, and missiology"--
